It will be a miracle we don't end up in another civil war, that is of course if we can put WWIII back into the box. I don't think the powers that be realized how far gone Russia's ability to make war was and certainly didn't calculate Irans complete collapse. I think the bigger problem now is we would be almost stupid if we didn't strike while the iron was hot and our enemies appear incompetent. This mostly leaves us with China to deal with economically I know they are feeling the impact but they probably have fully functional and advanced equipment. We'll see how this plays out I guess.
Yeeh well breaking cohesion in society ,by eroding trust etc can be the thing that is needed..... the straw that broke the camel's back . Need just patience & time to execute it all .
Humans evolved with groups that had some sort of bond between people , trust between the group/tribe/nation....it`s the glue that keep at least some sort of cohesion in society. It seems like there has been great mistake by starting dismantle these bonds, either by inadvertently , or by on purpose . It can happen in any country/ nation too .Civil war is the ugly end result in the long run if the change continues too long .
This all , that has changed so much society from 1950s to this day , seem to me there has been foul play going on...decades.
Seems like the internet has been also something that can fuel the issues far too easely , or too easy to believe views presented there .
I think Iran will probaly see soon where their sick ideology will lead them , and i mean the regime....the people in Iran are fine people , being beated by sick regime since 1979 . China is hungry and wants more, bad times ahead ...
