IS WAR IN THE MAKING?
Speaking of political correctness, is there an established world protocol in meddling global crisis? When does a country needed to act on behalf of whom?History points out very clearly that interests vested from a country to another holds most the cohesive and collective purpose to stand against whom that threatens that interest.
WW2, was an example albeit more for the dominance of ideological entity between communism and democratic principles. (Axis versus Allied). This major global event that reshaped the demographic as well as political face of our world was originally thought to have been a continuation of the unfinished business of the First World War, but looking at it from outside of the box, as lucid as the clear skies, it was directed to the test of whom holds the most sophisticated ammunition to control the world. We now know how it ended.
The world today is facing yet another skirmish that might either change our lives as we know it, or perhaps even worse, can completely erase our one and only planet on this vast universe.
Reading the news today with the US leading the super economic power in the world per GDP with 14.5 trillion, followed by China with 5.5, Japan with 3.3, France with 2.6, UK with 2.2, and Italy with 2.1. (Read Google as the top 12)
From this chart we can spot who's most likely to be the contenders of aggression. Four of the last war's protagonist are, again still on the top with the addition of China. Yet in the past months, Russia had exhibited it's arrogance by its actions against Ukraine. A possible trigger to manifest what you and I, the ordinary peaceful human being to not want to happen.
In most cases, conflict doesn't matter who or where it starts. Like a group of kids being bullied out by the arrogance of the aggressors, it matters who will join in when it begins. I am amazed at how we're so focused on the conflict in the Middle East when in fact, it just might start now, in Asia, or why did Obama signed up for the reinforcement of military strength in Philippines recently?
Is war in the making? Who would most likely to join who? Why?

I'm truly grateful for your input.
I think one of the things that has kept America free is: the right to bear arms! One thing obummer realizes is, there are millions of game hunters and former vets, like myself, who are well trained in using weapons. The estimate is over 100 million guns in the hands of these segments of the population. Something for the one-worlders to think about!
War is waged for gain...simple as that...no country would engage in warfare if there is nothing to prosper...propaganda is designed to keep its' citizens interested in continuing the struggle...meanwhile the strategy of the powers that be, are played down and hidden from the public...conflicts within countries such as Syria display the shear anger and distrust of the current government...
Seems to be a growing trend of people of this world is to stand up against and fight the establishment, where freedom is curtailed and people are held hostage to extremists views...trouble is (Iran as an example)...the Shaw wasn't perfect and perhaps the people of Iran didn't want to be Westernized as was the Shaw's agenda but his successor was a brutal reminder that people need to be cognisant of political parties that will lie to gain the approval of its citizens to obtain absolute power...
As mentioned by Z, we're left governed by people who pretty much sold their souls to the group they're obliged to serve, and therefore ignore the needs that truly serve the citizens. A most legitimate complain I can air is the fact that he, Obama, doesn't seem to address any productive engagement of his leadership to enforce our Constitution and Republican rights. Look at his immigration law how he blatantly welcome the violation we so protect and to be very selective about it is beyond me to understand.
In the local conflict between constituents and government, it's called Civil war, a stage of chaos and anarchy aired as a dissent by the people due to dissatisfied and protest of their crippling rule. That's an internal conflict which doesn't amount to any gain other than the business side of supply and demand.
In an international conflict, yes there's so much monetary equation to be considered. As Nam said.
On the rules of the Shah, the price and profit of oil generated by the US investors hurt the Iranians, hence our involvement. Anyways same thing again in Iraq, how the Iraqis did not serve their economy on the price imposed on their oils.
Does light only exist in darkness? White can't seen without black? Love is dependent on hate?
Is war in the making?
From some of the response, I can see some are not approving of Obama's policies. I for one, think he is doing an okay job...given the complex environment he is working in.
With how politically polarized our country has become, I think we will see a lot of disapproval with our citizens toward our government. If G.W. was in office, I have a feeling the question of "Is war in the making?" at this point would be a non-factor....because we would be in the middle of WWIII by now. I firmly believe that Obama is doing his best to avoid war. However, there seem to be others in our government that are watering at the mouth for it.

Hope you are doing well SR.
Think about those needs to know basis information.
I'm sure when this happens, you and I don't matter. ONLY the elites and monies people will be able to live. The assurance of their paid ticket to Sir Branson's Space shuttle is guaranteed. Are you in it? Of course not neither am I.
Russia too, seeks for the same reason against Ukraine.
Now ISIS or the slamic State of Iraq in Syria is seeking war for religious purposes to kill everyone who is not a Muslim. Think of this is there any kind of opinion we can make on this and where does United States stand on both confrontational actions and where do we stand?
When Bush wage Desert Shield, to Desert Storm, we all know the global interest on those wars, costing a billion a day? Think of what the return was?
AFGHANISTAN? Makes me wonder.
Anyways, we do feel the imminent danger looming within our realms.
Thanks Johnny,
SR
How do you feel about our involvement in any of this?
Am I understanding that you don't favor this topic at all?
Now if I were selfish, I'd say, sure, I'd live at the moment and don't give a dam if tomorrow terrorism reigns.
