Hegemonic anxiety disorder of US has resulted in 'Chaos Americana'

WASHINGTON SEES THE COLLECTIVE rise of the developing world as a threat. That bodes trouble for all, Xinhua News Agency commented in an article published on Wednesday. Excerpts:

Three decades of unrivaled hegemony has induced a historically ill-founded but deeply entrenched belief in Washington that the United States is an exceptional country above all others. Its past success in nipping in the bud any serious challenger to its dominance has only reinforced this belief.

In the eyes of incumbent US policymakers, global rules are in place to serve it, and any country that has a trade surplus with the US is ripping it off.
