negotiations with the Japanese, the United States seemed to have forgotten the diplomatic approach that transformed a hermit nation into one of the most powerful empires of the twentieth century. In 2003, the United States initiated a war that was directed towards the regime of Saddam Hussein in Iraq and, in a vague sense, terrorism in the Middle East. After ten years of fighting, the Middle East is undeniably in a state of shambles. While the U.S currently occupied the states of Iraq and…
