Ok, cut cnn out of the question. Does it not seem like the winds of war are blowing, in many people and peoples? Nationalism is on the rise at home and abroad. Idk i feel a cool wind of war stirring like that cool brease that earily swirls through a beautiful warm summer day that warns of the thunderheards just beyond the horizon. I pray it not so but my soul feels it and has mellowed my normal jovial self.
good question about war brewing. we will never know until it happens, so we need to cut ourselves slack there. what i do know is, since ive been alive there has been unrest in the middle east. Europe is generally accepted as having more liberal governments and more diverse vs the west. asian/latin countries have maintained homogeneity (they arent less japanese/chinese/korean.brazilian/chilean due to population diversity) vs the world and have more communist/socialist governments of varying degrees.
I dont see a threat from any asian country because they need us more then we need them and they are more focused on growing their economies. Latin countries arent a threat due to size, they are all small, except mexico. and mexico is mexico, so no worries there.
the threat, i see, is from the middle east and the spread of radical islam. again, conflict in the middle east is nothing new. its been going on for thousands of years and will continue to. we need to accept that, but know its not our war. however, we cant let that mess fall at our feet. and its spreading to places where muslim populations grow, unfortunate as it is. its not racist if its true. a few bad apples are ruining it for them all. there is a shift in europe to the right, politically, already due to the influx of these populations and the effect its having on the countries existing cultures. france is becoming less french, germany is becoming less german. people are rightly afraid of that and the liberal tide is turning over there because the policies lead to such poor results (violence!!)
but no, i dont see a ww3 because radical islam isnt based in one country. it has no home. its a belief that kills apparently. its the modern war
