	Pax Americana Tassles on the Fringe They Lie ... Sometimes excerpted from the book Hoax the difference in world view ...
		In emulation there is to be a Pax Americana, or a supervision of the globe by the United States under which human kind thrives in amity and free trade.
		Pax Americana sounds altruistic, idealistic, and laudably boy-scoutish-the generous Americans doing something good again-but it can't be enforced with our atomic-tipped spears, as the frustrating American experience in Iraq should make obvious.
		Pax Americana will be infantry and military police going to uncomfortable, fly blown, flea bitten, far away places where funny little dyspeptic people take pot shots at them.

	Thomas Paine's Corner: Pax Americana Defined (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The term Pax Americana (Latin: "American Peace") denotes the period of relative peace in the Western world since the end of World War II in 1945, coinciding with the dominant military and economic position of the United States.
		During this period, no armed conflict has emerged among major Western nations themselves, and no nuclear weapons have been used, while the United States and its allies have been involved in various regional wars (such as the Korean War and the Vietnam War), and have maintained espionage and covert operations in various other areas.
		The term Pax Americana is used by critics of U.S. policy to describe an effort they allege is made by the U.S. to suppress countries that do not cooperate with U.S. policy, but some supporters of American foreign policy also use the term, so it is not necessarily derogatory.

	Welcome to the Pax Americana (by Stan Moore) - Media Monitors Network (MMN) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Essentially, the Pax Americana is a concept in which American hegemony by force of arms results in a world dominated by American interests under force of American arms, with no strategic rivals permitted.
		Installation of a Pax Americana around the world sounds easier on paper than it is on the ground, because most citizens of the world have sentiments similar to a founding father of America who, when offered a choice, said: "Give me liberty or give me death".
		Pax Americana is designed to subjugate nations and take their resources by force if necessary.

		The formal birth of the Pax Americana and the final grave of the old regime, was the Suez canal, when the US told Britain and France in no uncertain terms to withdraw from the Suez and threatened to cause a financial crisis for England by selling off the US's pound reserves.
		Pax's are expensive and the US can't afford theirs anymore, and as soon as various international parties decide they don't see enough benefit in funding it anymore, it'll end.
		It is very clear to educated people and their governments, that Syria and Iran are responsible for all the death and destruction and those regimes may not be long for this world.

		Thus, the first order of the new Pax Americana is to bring those we deem as heathens to democracy, to modernize the poor devils, and while we're at it teach them the beauties of a more materialistic culture.

		If the Pax Americana envisioned by PNAC is regarded as an empire by its critics, then it is a new kind of empire, one driven at least as much by a moral mission as by national economic interests.
		Although the commissioners of the Brussels Tribunal have not raised the issue of a counterterrorism agenda as part of their charges against the Project for the New American Century, this matter deserves to be part of this inquiry.
		Perhaps the most striking aspect of PNAC is not its call for a renewed Pax Americana or its candid embrace of American supremacy but rather its failure to address the threat of international terrorism.

		And ultimately the PAX Americana Blueprint details an aggressive and massive build up of United States military supremacy that it will ensure is second to no other nation.
		Be assured, this is the dawning of Imperial PAX Americana.

	The Center for Process Studies: Process Alternative to Pax Americana
		There are many reasons in process thought to believe that the attempt to enforce a Pax Americana on the world will not have the idyllic consequences portrayed by its advocates.
		With regard to the prospect that a Pax Americana would mean a world of peace and prosperity based on democratic principles, we should examine the conditions of some of those countries over which the USA has long exercised the most control--for example, Guatemala, Nicaragua, El Salvador, the Philippines, Haiti, and the Dominican Republic.
		In short, the deeper purpose of conquering Iraq seems to be the advance of the global hegemony of the United States for the sake of establishing a Pax Americana.

		There was hope in liberal circles that the US would use its sole superpower status to undergird a multilateral order that would institutionalize its hegemony but assure an Augustan peace globally.
		What they want is a Pax Americana where most of the subordinate populations like the Arabs are kept in check by a healthy respect for lethal American power, while the loyalty of other groups such as the Philippine government is purchased with the promise of cash.
