      As a European, I can’t see any difference. It is true that Bush junior - just like his father - shamelessly exploited his supremacy to bring Iraq under his control, but I don’t see what has changed since then.

      I don’t think there’s a previous period to compare it to. The US has gone through isolationist periods before (eg 1930s) but never dictatorship.
