What specifically are you "afraid" of?

But I think that America is the least stable of all the countries I would fear most (those with nuclear weaponry and materials).
Least stable in what way? We are going through the process of electing a new government leader, the entire House and 1/3 of the Senate. No bombings, no assassinations, a quite civil process. What is the instability you see?

Considering the bordering-on-completely-pointless war in Iraq and thus the refusal of the US to remove itself from Iraq
You didn't listen to the UN debates, the debates here and in the UK Parliment as to the "points"? And why should we surrender to the enemy?

I'd say the rest of the world's pride and ego which they put above their own security is the most trouble in the world nowadays. Had they swallowed it ( and also not violated the UN sanctions and supported Saddam) we'd all be much safer and better off.

Too many politicians are trying to 'save face' that we lost the point of democracy and the idea of America.
What is this "point of democracy" you speak off. The people through their representatives voted overwhelmingly to overthrow Saddam.
