A crucial political conclusion can be drawn from the attitude of Washington during those years, which along with the global economic crisis and the turmoil raging in the Eurozone and the euro: The U.S. leadership supports most against the euro in its current form and with the existing rules of the Eurozone! ...
Studying the results of ten years existence of the euro as the single currency of Continent in material and not just book-Americans leaders realized that they had committed a serious error in the early 21st century.
Underestimated the consequences of the introduction of the euro with respect to the expansion of economic, and therefore political hegemony of Germany across the continent. They thought that the euro would facilitate further penetration of U.S. firms in Europe, as objectively dramatically limit the multiple exchange rate risks they were exposed U.S. companies in Europe. Life has shown, however, that in the decade that the euro has forced all countries that use it as their national currency to fall to an unprecedented extent German domination.
The truth is that the political developments in the U.S. made it virtually impossible for the U.S. leadership to realize what was going to happen with the euro, which was the final stage before being put into circulation. Recall that the euro came into circulation on 1 January 2002. Just eleven months earlier, on January 21, 2001, took on U.S. President George W. Bush's son, after the fraudulent elections of Florida in November 2000.
That climbed to power the neocons, the American extreme right decides culture which believed that the successive wars of conquest in the Middle East that would ensure the planned global U.S. hegemony over the energy blackmail all major industrial powers and ... allies in Washington - the Europe, Japan, China ... Just three and a half months before the official launch of the euro we were both covered with mystery and suspicion Sept. 11, 2001 attacks on the U.S., which allowed the neocons of the Bush administration to begin their wars of conquest their initials in Afghanistan and soon in Iraq where things went very differently as expected.
During the eight years of neoconservative far right paranoia in the leadership of the U.S. is no reflection on the euro could not be developed by American leaders. The rise to power of Barack Obama's presidential elections of 2008 coincided exactly with the outbreak of the U.S. financial crisis, when there were very serious tasks for American leadership of the concerns about the euro.
But once things calmed down somewhat, even if the crisis is far exceeded, Washington de facto forced to come into contact with the problem of the euro and the euro through German hegemony in Europe. Through direct and continuous involvement of the IMF, which they control completely, Americans gradually realized that the Memoranda imposed by the Germans in Greece, Ireland, Portugal, Cyprus and threaten to expand in Spain and perhaps Italy and who knows what other European country, are essentially in political and economic tradition of the respective countries German dominance! The initial reaction in Washington was to use the IMF as blackmail leverage to increase sharply for Berlin the economic cost of the subordination of these countries in the Eurozone.
The pretext for the U.S. was the view through the IMF's debt sustainability every "traped' country, starting from Greece. In essence, that is, the Americans are seeking to uphold institutions that Germans will even pay hundreds of billions of euros for each country in the eurozone's government debt will become unsustainable, undermining the gains of Berlin, economically and politically, by the operation Eurozone to eventually lead to disintegration of the euro.
