America's financial 9/11

There are certain eternal verities and inviolate precepts of nature which regulate the functioning of this universe. These principles are no respecter of persons and everything under the sky is subject to the long arm of these principles. The kernel of these principles is respect for humanity. Whenever anyone, be it an individual or a nation, acts in contravention of these verities by giving short shrift to the respect for humanity, the nature crushes him or it under its ruthless and razor-sharp wheels. The plight of America is a case in point. Back in the days, America was quoted as a byword for human rights and democratic or egalitarian attitudes. But no sooner had America started polishing off humanity and committing crimes against it by establishing Guantanamo Bay and Abu Gharib than its supremacy began to wane. The gravest financial crisis which has infected the US economy about two weeks ago is a presage of the fact that US hegemony is going to wither away.
