Very true. <BR/><BR/>Infact, at the time of writing this piece itself I had decided that I need to right a counter-argument for this... but seems like you have already said what I wanted to say in my counter-argument.

The world has always run the same way. There has never been a world power that's not done its outmost to crush others. <BR/><BR/>2. The current US led world is probably the most 'free' it's ever been. Think about it, this period was directly preceded by the imperial world where most humanity (including most countries) had no rights. <BR/><BR/>3. The above fact is not to say that the situation right now is great .. but if we look at the entire history of the world ..it's better than it's ever been. The solution probably lies somewhere in the future ... but we're better off than before<BR/><BR/>4. The US has had remarkable restraint considering it's global position. yes, they've had their moments of idiotic self righteousness (like where they are now) ... but mostly ...they've acted in their interest but not gone as far as take over countries (which they can very well do)<BR/><BR/>5. Uprisings occur when the ones in power abuse it, the US has done it in recent times and we're seeing the results. <BR/><BR/>6. Finally ... it's pretty certain that once an uprising succeeds, the new power structure simply replaces the old one and acts pretty much the same way.Author: Furorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05069921279399300436noreply@blogger.com
