    Wait, since when does Israel control the U.S. government?

    I have to agree with one of the above users, if it does, it will be internal.

    And the U.S. is NOT an empire. If we really were the hate-filled, oppressive people we're portrayed as in other countries, why would so many people risk their lives to sneak in here from all across the globe.

    The U.S. will truly never "fall". Because while the the U.S. is a country, the American freedoms have expanded well beyond our borders, into dozens of other countries, and as long as their are Americans left somewhere who can pass on their idealisms, the U.S. will never die.

    Also, as stated above, we have a stronger military than any other country in the world. So if any country tried to bring us down, someone would have to edit the maps, because that country would exist shortly.

    The entire world trades in three markets and all the markets are driven by investors with money in all three .

    The American dollar is the driving force behind all the wealth in the world and it would take a major change in the investment strategy of billionaires the world over to effect America .

    The poorest of our poor live better then 70% of the worlds population in America and no change is evident any time soon and that means over the next 20 years . . .

    First,before I answer this,let me say I am american,now that i have said that,if the american empire ever does fall,it will be an internal incident that makes it happen,if you look back in history,every great empire has crumbled from within,now to the guy that said we are no longer a superpower,what are you talking about,the only ranking that truly matters is military might,and their isn't a country that comes close.............

    There is a great French-Canadian movie called the Decline and Fall of the American Empire. Was made maybe 25 years ago. Check it out.

    Don't know. Only time would tell. Americans are very ignorant and have a habit of processing data and information according to what favorable to them, under any category. The opposing party might take advantage of that, beware America.

    Not long now.

    We're already crumbling at the foundations. And with every insult thrown at America by Americans, the problem worsens.

    Just be patient. We'll destroy ourselves with little or no help from the outside world.

    No empire can stay number one forever, it will happen some day, probably less the seventy years, but thats just a guess.

    America isn't an empire since like, the late 50's with the annexation of Hawaii. So, never?
