September 11 and the rise of global anti-Americanism since the Iraq War have raised concerns in American society about the US's image in the world and led to the contestation of the concept of the enemy as had been elaborated by the Bush administration. This concern has had a profound impact in American cultural production, and particularly on American cinema, and has shaped the demand for a change of policy that would restore the moral status of the US. Barack Obama, using various elements, managed to incorporate this demand in his electoral campaign and raised the issue of anti-Americanism as a means of criticism of the Bush administration. The discourse on anti-Americanism contested the national narration formed during the Bush presidency and functioned as an asset in the Obama campaign. Barack Obama, with his charismatic political personality, the symbolic power of his personal story and through a personalized presidential campaign, tried to combine the revival of American idealism with moderate conservatism.

'Global war against terrorism' (GWAT) was a direct result of the terrorist attacks on the United States by Islamic fundamentalists in September 2001. The aims of GWAT formulated during the presidency of George W. Bush related to two time horizons (short-term and long-term) and two planes of involvement (military and propaganda). The article focuses entirely on presenting the range and effects of the USA's involvement in GWAT on the military plane. The USA's strategic aim was to fight Islamic terrorists and regimes supporting them (e.g. the Taliban regime in Afghanistan or Saddam Hussein's in Iraq). The change of name from GWAT to 'overseas special operations' (OSO) during Barack Obama's presidency mirrors the American administration's evolving perception on of the USA's involvement in contemporary asymmetrical conflicts. Attention is also drawn to the positive effects of American military operations in the Philippines and the so-called Horn of Africa, both in the aspect of strategy and operation.
