Yes it is pretty funny that you don't see what is going on.  Read my note
more carefully and you will see that the US is the hegemon guaranteeing the
present world order.  Just as Britain was the hegemon guaranteeing the world
order in Napoleon's day.  Your skewed view is apparently made up out of
whole cloth not relating to anything -- except a skewed view.

Lawrence, can you think of a country today that is actually trying to
overturn the world 

order? Which country is trying to change everything? Cancel treaties? Seize
the planet? 

Start pointless wars? Feed weapons and money into other wars?

It's pretty funny that you say this. Apparently, it really is impossible for
some people not 

to see what is going on.
