“The key political issue that is shaping up here is whether or not the world is a unipolar world politically and militarily, with the superpower U.S. being that pole. The alternative view, which is gaining strength, is that the world is a multipolar world, with many voices. The anti-bombing voices among the American public are rising, and so are voices overseas with a number of different views. The administration and some Congressmen are focused on the ‘message’ that failing to bomb conveys; they are focused on credibility. But what they are missing is that no matter how this event turns out, all the other voices have been entering the conversation.”
