I rarely take interest in any administration. But saying that the US specifically (despite the fact they were not alone) is trying to take over the world is far-fetched. It doesn't need to establish its dominance. Everyone is aware that America is basically the powerhouse in terms of military and financial. For one, I wouldn't call anyone who joined them spineless lapdogs either. Afghanistan certainly isn't because the purpose of the Afghan war is to hit back at the people who harboured those responsible for 9/11. Iraq came about with misguided information, but calling the countries involved spineless is a pretty close-minded view. These countries were doing what they thought was best at the time, and taking a fight and standing up to those responsible (Al-Qaeda and its allies) is not being spineless.
M.O.A.B. It's there in black and white. Pure and simple. Signed off by Jeb Bush, Paul Wolfowitz, Donald Rumsfeld, Richard 'Fuckface' Perle, Dick Cheney, Eliot Cohen, William Kristol, Francis Fukuyama (since repented), Elliott Abrams, Donald Kagan, Steve Forbes and the rest. They actually were brazen enough to announce to the world that 'we are the leaders, we want to control the world, and we want to copper fasten and extend that control in our own interests'. Black and white. The Iraq war is the biggest tangible demonstration of their insipid agenda. Afghanistan was understandable in the context of 9/11. Any grovelling nation that engaged in Iraq to appease the 'superpower' is spineless and is worthy of nothing more than disdain.
