I’m afraid nothing will, at least not for Europe. Maybe countries from other parts of the world get it, but Europe seems bound and determined to underestimate the threat we pose. Maybe they think we will restrict our imperialist ambitions to the Western hemisphere only, but if so they are very foolish. And, of course, they should oppose imperialism whether it’s happening in their hemisphere or not.
To all the Europeans reading this: we have told you who we are, we have told you what we want, in no uncertain terms. Believe us.
If this didn’t put the world on notice and make them suddenly more defensive, nothing will.
