I am not from the US, but I imagine they are ready for the consequences, as they spend more on their military than all the other members of the UN combined. Look what happened to Afghanistan for harboring a militant group that organized 9/11. I would say that as tragic as 9/11 was, Afghanistan has suffered for more for its modest role. Iraq crossed the US and look what happened to it. Again, yes American soldiers died, but hardly in the number that iraqis have and will continue to do.
People on QL also make a big deal about the rise of China and how it will overtake the US. First, the US GDP is three times that of China, even though China has roughly four times America's population. Second, does anyone outside China really want to live in a world in which China is the world's superpower? I'm not saying the US is great, but seriously . . .
Remember, the United States is the only country that has used a nuclear bomb. So yes, I would say the Americans ready to deal quickly and decisively with threats to their empire.
