Locations of Agression Indicates Wider Global War Approaching

In both lead ups to World War I and World War II nations had divided  themselves up into  Axis and Allies, facist and democracratics , aggressors and pacifist. But , what had to happen before either one these wars could occur? World economic collapse !These scenarios were especially prevalent before World War II where the pretext to war was not really recognizable in its earliest stages where German contempt and embarrassment  for having  to pay the entire  reparations from World War I still existed.

The Depression had already hit after a stock market crash that led to  hyperinflation. International investors, arms dealers and false prophets" of propaganda also had to be manufactured be they real or not. But, that wasn't all that had to happen. Proxy wars had to be fought to test new re-armament weapons of mass destruction on civilian populations as in Spain,  Ethiopia ,Libya, "Free" China and Southeast Asia. For those who were looking to pull themselves out of the shock of the Great Depression,  annexing and re-annexing former lands or new lands for resources had to be found. Germany formed it's Anchluss and Lebensraum programs  while Japan sought rich minerals and petroleum resources  in Southeast Asia. Thus the world had laid the pretext for all out aggression.  The only thing needed were choosing up sides. Thus, the Axis and Allies powers squared off.

This picture is not too different than  that of  today's scenario occurring  around the globe. China for it's own nationalistic interests  has sought to annex(or re-annex) the Spratly Islands of the Phillipines which along with Vietnam, Malaysia, Brunei and Taiwan are all making a bid for the mineral rich island/rocks. China is determined to undermine Japan's sovereignty to the Senkaku and Diaoyu Islands for similar purposes of rich mineral resources there. However, China, Russia and South Korea are perplexed by  the U.S. presence in the South Pacific pressuring the nation to "blink" in the wake of the Spartly Islands stand off and  also recently from the placement of U.S. THAAD missiles on South Korean soil.  North Korea has responded with the firing of more "warning" missiles.  examples With these a new "Triangle of Death" has potentially opened up.

Other opening theaters of potential war are on  the Indian Subcontinent  and Southeast Asia where pro-Democratic forces of  Myanmar  is displacing it's  Islamic inhabitants as China's Uighur(pronounced wiggers) are being displaced. India and Pakistan are at odds continuously between the Punjab and Kashmir. India is at odds at the border with China.

the Middle East and North Africa are all ablaze, enough said.

The Baltic regions are inviting aggression as pro-Western forces with NATO feel obliged to demonstrate it's resolve by supporting the stance with the Ukraine while arming Poland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. A prescription for potential disaster as Russia feels threatened by military maneuvers there.

So, far the America's have seemed unreachable until the sudden presence of terrorist attacks at the  beginning of the 21st century. The "open" borders may not only prove a political issue for the U.S. Presidential election , but also one for  military exercises as the southern borders  appear porous enough to invite  a threats of some form of attack.

Last, but not least is the areas designated by both Zibegniew Brezinski and Collin Powell as the "Great Game" or what we call Central Asia and Eurasia. It's wealth of minerals, oil and strategic locations along with the religious tensions makes it a hotbed for several small fires coalescing into a grand conflagration.

The world's economic collapse in 2008, shifting tides of  nations destabilized, their populations displaced or depopulated adds to the chaos of the world unable to handle the logistical errors of already a vulnerable  world situation.

The crisis grows  along  with climate changes and extreme demographic shifts  due to displaced populations do not house people as  workers, farmers. Both  bombed out lands and environmental disasters lay waste to  lands that can not be used for practically anything for several years or decades.

It is time to tie in all of our problems  as one effecting our one Earth and understand that what happens in one country effects those living in another thousands of miles away, although maybe not  either initially or even simultaneously at first, but time is relative in a global world with a global economy. It is time to meet at the table of reason  before we repeat the mistakes of our bloody past!
