http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/7663574.stmAmerica has increased strikes in Bajaur and other tribal areas on the Afghan border, targeting suspected militants. The Pakistani army has denounced the raids. It fears they will make the tribes switch sides, and turn the emerging anti-Taleban sentiment into an anti-American one. "We want them [the US] to realise that these attacks are destabilising the situation, and they are not helping them or Pakistan," foreign ministry spokesman Mohammed Sadiq said on Friday. "They are helping the terrorists."

actually it's not the world that's falling, but our outdated views of it. Yesterday i saw a debate on the BBC on whether the brittish would still be able to play a major role internationally   What where the people on this little island that holds less then one percent of the world population,thinking???? I mentioned it before; if the west would want to have some kind of leadership in the world, we should aim no longer for military or economical leadership but moral leadership of the kind that Gandhi and Mandela have shown. If we want to hold on to power in the traditional sense (wich the rest of the world simply won't allow us to have), then we're really finished and ms Pelosi was more right then she could have wanted when she sayed 'the party is over'.

Quote:Yesterday i saw a debate on the BBC on whether the brittish would still be able to play a major role internationally Are you serious? Even the EU as a whole will have a minor role in the world in the next 10 years. I guess it will be like this: US+Europe: 40% China, Russia, India: 60% And in the next 20 years maybe 30/70

It's the politicians. So eager to become worldleaders and then too stupid to take any responsability. International action wouldn't have to be that complex, but these old men so desperately want to hold on to their fucking principles like national souvereignty or the fuckingfree market. I'm telling you that if these so called worldleaders are not even able to come up with something, like international regulation of the financial system, same level savings-garantees, centralbank garanteed loans, etc, then these people would most certainly not be able to handle any REAL crisis.
This is only financial; you need a mathematician and some legislative power to solve it, basically.
They aren't able to solve this because they cannot resolve their little,tiny insignificant differences, they're afraid to lose power when committing to international agreements and they're afraid to look like communists. And because of these tiny, little, stupid things they're actually bringing the world to the edge of disaster and maybe even a little further.
If a new influenza-pandemia would occur, or something REAL, we would be seriously fried, with these morons in charge of our planet.

DMTripper is a fictional character therefore everything he says here must be fiction.

We are. The masses. And it's our lack of any basic understanding of things, that's pulling the strings.
Society's and the world at lerge are constantly pulling us into prissoner-dilemma situations. So even if we DO understand what's going on, but if we're not sure everybody else understands, we often have to act AS IF we don't understand (just like on the stockmarkets).
We have to act AS IF we're stupid, because everybody acts this way, and all those other people are doing that because WE are, etc. That's why you need legislation and regulation. These politicians just have to mention that, and to mention it some more and then yet some more to make the balance slowly tilt the other way.
