This is where the US stands today. They have wrecked certain parts of the world and no one is willing to stand with them to fight against ISIS apart from a few handpicked countries.
The international coalition against ISIS comprises of 44 countries in total. However, only 7 are conducting offensive operations against ISIS positions. Others contribute to the cause in non-violent manner.
Everyone knows how ISIS gained more power after the failed war in Iraq. ISIS has today engulfed the Middle East and the war has even reached Western shores.
ISIS movement benefited primarily from instability in Iraq and Syria. Both George W. Bush and Bashar al-Assad are responsible for instability in these countries.
Moreover, I still fail to understand why US released Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi from captivity. This psycho somehow orchestrated ISIS movement.
Same story for Afghanistan where a puppet regime is confined to the walls of Kabul. The Taliban are in full control and winning more territory each day. The Afghan and Iraqi people were promised peace and prosperity. It is for everyone to judge whether this promise has been fulfilled.
Taliban movement had noble objectives in the beginning and brought stability to much of the war-torn country. However, it ended-up transforming the country to a breeding ground of terrorists due to its misguided notions and customs.
At present, Taliban movement is not Sharia-oriented. It has splintered into several groups and some of those groups have been hijacked by criminal elements with questionable motives. Don't expect any good news from this movement. And neither it is making any noticeable gains on the ground. Instead, it has now become the source of instability in the region.
ISAF mission in Afghanistan has UN Mandate and it is not some kind of conspiracy against Pakistan. A stable Afghanistan is necessary for peace in the region. Duplicity in matters of Afghanistan helps no-one.
In the process, the US economy has taken a serious dent and there is a reason why many Americans are today dissatisfied with the performance and deliverance of their government. They are willing to give an entertainer clown a chance to be their next president. A clown by the way that has made no secret about his desire to further divide the USA on religious and ethnic lines. His rallies where people kick each other in the face and scold each other in front of live national TV speaks volume. Mexicans, black African Americans, Muslims and other minority groups are targeted and accused for all the problems in the US.
US is economically doing very well actually:

Over 95% employment level is nothing to sneeze at.
As for Donald Trump, he is tapping into sentiments of the populace to gain votes. He is very smart. This article tells you everything you need to know about his approach to politics:

By the way, too early to tell who will become the next President.
The Americans are creating more enemies and tensions in the world today. From China to Russia and Iran. Many countries are today in full collision course with the US for various reasons. That even includes Western allies who are mass spied upon.
Actually no.
1. You don't count Russia as an example. It is a confirmed rival.
2. China is still the largest trading partner of the US.
3. Iran is trying to normalize its relations with the US.
Turkey is irked to an extent by recent developments but I don't see any International coalition in the formation against American interests. You are overreaching in your assumptions.
The last thing that the Americans need to worry about is Pakistan. The Americans have huge challenges in front of them and I'm very doubtful they can address them appropriately.
They fought World Wars and Cold War. You think Pakistan and modern issues are too much for them? Don't be naive.
The above being the case, US should revisit its foreign policy and refrain from destroying other countries. Wars bring instability and fuel terrorism.
if we are going down then we will make sure that we empty our arsenal as who else will be using it after we are gone. We might be anaihlated but indian will become a nuclear waste land with you future generation coming out as reincarnations of your bhagwans with multiple heads and limbs. You people will not be able to sow a seed or drink a glass of water from your own rivers. If you we go down then we will take you down with us. You might not have first use policy but we do.
