The war in Afghanstan drones on reminding us more of what happened ongoing in Korea with no armistice or end to the Korean war now for well over 60 years now. For example, this means the war was going on since I was around 3 or 4 years old and I'm now in my late 60s. So, this is one reason the war in Afghanistan and the wars in Iraq and Syria (Afghanistan since 2001 or 2002 now ongoing) is the longest war that the U.S. has ever engaged in with 2 Presidents of 8 years each presiding over it.
So, there is money and psychological fatigue going on worldwide regarding the messes of Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Libya and Afghanstan.
One could say it all began in 2001 with the downing of the twin towers and on one level you would be right. However, maybe it is better to say that European colonization of the middle East and Africa was where it all really started depending upon how you view all this. You could say it started with Christian Crusaders killing every man woman and child in Jerusalem in the dark ages or you could say it began when Jesus and Christianity started to spread to Rome from Israel of those times.
Where did all this begin? Maybe its' subjective and not objective after all. Maybe it is in the eye of the beholder wherever they live on earth.
However, you look at it war has fatigued the world for at least since 2001 now worldwide. However, the problems causing these conflicts are mostly just overpopulation. When you look at history in the middle east what has always happened is when there was overpopulation religions in the area wiped out competing religions. This is what has always happened in the Middle East.
Logically speaking the sheer numbers of the Sunnis would wipe out the Shia that are only mostly in Iran, Iraq and Syria for the most part.
However, if you actually thought that you likely would be wrong because Iran is developing nuclear weapons sooner or later. They are very high tech compared to countries like Saudi Arabia. So, if you write off Iran you are making a mistake because Iran is forced to compete through technology to stand against the over 1 billion Sunnis on earth.
So, though overpopulation is the cause the result is Sunnis and Shias killing each other and every other religion in the middle east especially Yazidis and Christians. We are almost at the point where there are no Christians at all left in Iraq or Syria as a result.
There is an attitude in the Christian world of Europe and North America to simply "Write off" the middle East. However, with millions and millions of refugees now wandering around the middle East and Europe and the whole world maybe this isn't a good idea?
Because if these people stay refugees their children are going to grow up very very angry: (The ones that survive all this and want to direct that anger at someone. And who do you think that someone is going to be?) That's right. The refugees of today could easily become the terrorists of tomorrow seeking revenge for what is happening to them right now. It's a never ending vicious circle if we don't find ways to mitigate this somehow. Because terrorists create havoc and that havoc and blown up cities where people have to leave by the millions creates more terrorists eventually who are brothers and sisters of the children that didn't survive this whole thing as refugees.
So, not dealing with this now only makes it worse in the future. And logically you can bet on it unless something worse or different or better happens in the meantime.
To the best of my ability I write about my experience of the Universe Past, Present and Future
