بیشترتوضیحاتافزودن یادداشت جدید US Challenges and Hurdles As mentioned earlier, political, social and economic conditions indicate that the US is not able to forward its post-September 11 militaristic policy, rather this policy has been adopted in order to impose its declining power on the international community to postpone the end of its status as a superpower or its disintegration. In the implementation of this policy, the US will face a number of problems: 1 Time plays an important role in US militarism. If the US fails to establish its position as the sole superpower of world through military means, it will face a fiasco in this regard, for neither the American society can tolerate nor the US economy can support a protracted war. 2 In the implementation of this policy, the US cannot tolerate any defeat, for any defeat in an extraterritorial operation will herald the decline of American empire. Although the Americans try to project their military intervention in Afghanistan and Iraq as victorious operations, they have faced serious problems and hurdles. 3 Without any doubt the Palestinian crisis and the iron fist policy of Israeli Prime Minister, Ariel Sharon, have created great hurdles in the way of implementation of this militaristic policy. At a joint press conference with British Prime Minister, Tony Blair, on April 4, the US President George W. Bush, announced: The developments of the region have stopped the American plans. In fact President Bush somehow confessed to the failure of this policy in its very early stages. 4 The deadline for George W. Bush to implement his policies is December 2003, for the year 2003 is time of preparation for the ensuing year's presidential elections. Naturally, the former presidents used to assign the last 18 months of their presidency to domestic problems because they play a crucial role in the garnering of votes. In other words, they assign very limited amount of time to foreign problems. The economic pressures the taxpayers have to endure accompanied with the failure of militaristic policies have caused dissatisfaction among the American citizens. 5 International hatred against the US is vigorously increasing. If we compare today's world impression of the US with that of the fifty years ago, we would easily realize that those who considered the United States their savior in the past, they consider it an arrogant, rogue state today. They maintain that the United States is not committed to any legal, humanitarian criteria and is ready to set a region or the entire world on fire in order to achieve its goals.
