There is a worldwide commonality of disparity. In France, there are those who are ultra-rich and those who have nothing to eat and hence we have extreme elements coming up in political parties. These extreme elements may just about reset the world-clock by a few hundred years with precision.
It is one thing to have extreme elements, it is altogether another to have a nut declaring war on some other country as he does not like someone’s face.
Anyway, coming back to the topic, these economic disparities are causing too much fluctuation in the world and will lead to a civil-war where there is going to be a coalition of the strong and that of the weak. This is highly inflammable combination which will have some demagogue making use of and throwing everyone into chaos.
At that point in time, we do not have an option but to fight. Unwanted fight, unnecessary conflict.
Things are I think the same across the world :- we already have the differentiation –
- the developed world
- the developing world
- the under-developed world
I am not sure if there have been any changes in any of these categories but I am sure that there might be some additions to the last one if not to any other category.
Right now, the terrorists have successfully made us live in the way they want us to live. Sadly, the story does not end there. Because they have made us the way they want us to live, we are also starting to think the way they want us to think and that is – to divide and differentiate among everything-
- does this guy have a liquid on him,
- does he have a foam/gel on him,
- does he have a radioactive thing on him
- what is his religion
- what is the propensity of this religion to be a terror-harbour
too much energy spent
