The allies...nay...The world be damned!

[Common Tator]

At the start of the Roman empire they had a policy that remained in effect as long as it was the only superpower in the world. When Romans stopped enforcing the statement they were destroyed and the dark ages fell upon the world.

That Roman axiom was simple. It was short. It was proved true over hundreds of years.

Let them hate, as long as they fear.

Dubya started us down the road to make all adversaries and potential adversaries fear us. They are reacting like frightened people. That was the object of Dubyas speech.

It appears to have worked.
