We trace America's journey from a nation resisting bombardment during the War of 1812, inspiring "The Star-Spangled Banner", to a global superpower now wielding similar force, drawing parallels to historical empires. This analysis highlights a potential contradiction between America's founding ideals of freedom and its current actions on the world stage, exemplified by the conflict in Gaza and its impact on Palestinian poets like Refaat Alareer, whose work echoes themes of resistance against overwhelming power.
