I have dreamed about the ability to do this for so long. Cut US communications off and prohibit travel in/out. You can come out in 100 years when you're ready to play nice.

Unfortunately, good old Uncle Sam may take offense at that, and his six-shooter contains somewhere on the order of a few thousand thermonuclear weapons, which he's already used, twice. He's also not afraid of ignoring national sovereignty and borders when it's in his interests.

Not saying this is a good thing by any means, and sorry for raining on your parade, but the situation is what it is. Hopefully sometime in the next few decades, if not sooner, some kind of change for the better can be made. Who knows?

Sorry to be a pedant but we used two atomic bombs, not thermonuclear ones. Encyclopaedia Britannica

If this happened, the first Americans to land in Paris in 100 years time would be greeted with "Privyet".
