In fact, I think the USA as a whole, deep down, *wants* someone to challenge them; they love a good fight and honest competition...

I think this post really nails it down. I think the world as a whole would be better off without dictators murdering innocent people. Honest and wholesome competition would be very good for it indeed. Three cheers for the new domino theory.
