As excited as I want to be, I advise extreme caution. The Amerikkkan Empire is great at playing the long game, even if not to the same extent as China and Russia. The U.S. is like a fucking cockroach (and that's an insult to cockroaches) that just won't fucking die up until you set your house on fire. A seemingly wounded gazelle is still extremely dangerous.

Dying empires do have a very nasty habit of getting embroiled in huge, long devastating wars, you're absolutely right.
