Like frustrated kids they reacted when their towers tumbled down. Instead of sitting still for a while and reflecting on the inner cause of what happened, they immediately reached out to whatever weak neighbour. Poor Afghanistan was the victim, Bin Laden was the justification. Then when apparently they could not get him, because as always he was too smart for them, the interest of the White House shifted 70 degrees to put Saddam Houssein into the picture.
The regression went further back with the older frustration coming up again, the one from the time that father Bush failed to get that one. So they stumbled blindly into Iraq without passports or visa, blind and deaf to what the real world keeps thinking and saying. The emotional regression of the USA has reached the stage where human rights treatees and international law treatees have to be signed again, and the stage where the UNO has to be invented again, and maybe also NATO has to be reinvented.

In the meantime tha American mad monster has been spitting its wild fire over the Middle-East, poisoning the whole region and the world with its stinking breath. It is strangling the Iraq authority with its right hand, and its left it has opened as a steeling claw over the oil reserves in the north, to burn also those in the coming decades and to continue darkening the earth's athmosphere..

It is cynical to think how far regression can go. Significantly for the USA it has now reached the place on earth where human culture and civilisation itself once emerged, and may have to emerge again as far as those hooligans are concerned.
