      are you saying the inception of the Cold War wasn't America's coronation as successor to Western imperialism?

      How is today's Russophobia & Sinophobia not a continuation of the British "Great Game" in Central Asia & domination of East Asia?

        never said that, just saying that the US didn't need a british coup to become imperialists

          the US needed the British empire's reach & financial ballast & finally its cooperation to carry out these schemes

          Hence why the London-Washington axis is the guarantor of external links between operations like NATO & at least at one point, the European Union's legitimacy

              yes, with Victorian era assistance through financialization & aqcuisition & export in these guano islands, sure

              American protectionism ending meant that international finance could step in & play a heavy-handed role
