Coming? It’s already a disorder.

We have Obama to thank for attempting to remove America from the global stage. Strong leadership gave the world stability for many years. Now with Obama trying to take out the hub of western man he has definitely tipped the scales.

That is the problem with injecting a rank anti American , 2016 amateur butt head into the equation. Blame the medias, blame the white guilt, blame his own party and the GOP for not vetting this unknown manchurian.

This void is now being filled by others not capable of doing what America did. As a result, there will be wars, disaster and suffering. Want hope and change? There will be change. More than what most can handle.

The treasonous bass turd needs to see GITMO form the inside, alongside his other terrorist brethren.

It’s 1860, 1914, 1917, 1929 and 1938 all at the same time.

What could possibly go wrong?

Pax Americana is dead, what comes next?

Additionally, Obama in a second term will cut the conventional military deeply and eliminate practically all of our nukes—unilaterally. Its the topic he did his college thesis on. The spineless RINOs will protest very ineffectively and the MSM will gush about Obama’s “courage” in disarming us. And the Military Chiefs will be too busy trying to recruit and promote gay soldiers.

All believable enough. So, who emerges from the chaos as the next international hegemon?

Interesting. However in regards to Asia, there is a theme that has been constant for the past one hundred years that is not well understood or even recognized by the West. Asians have been humiliated by Western culture and power. Europeans, few in number have dominated Asia. China had been dominated by the British, Indochina by the French, Indonesia by the Dutch, Philippines and the sea lanes by the Americans. Traditional Asian architecture is almost extinct and almost all construction follows Western models. The predominant language of trade and diplomacy is English. Western diet and pop culture are replacing traditional tastes. When Japan was the dominant power, its suicidal war of conquest was seen by its leaders as as not only an assertion of nationalistic dominance but as a battle to purge Asia of these Western influences and humiliations. Now China is the dominant power. After forty five years of self flagellation, it is now however flawed reclaiming the role of leadership and shares the wartime Japanese goal of ridding the region of Western control. It of course can never roll back the cultural and lifestyle influences of the West but it certainly wishes to be free of Western ( read that American) influence in the area. The initial big trial will come in the Persian Gulf. Iran is a part of Asia. China not only sees Iran as a source of energy but as a market for its goods. It simply wants American influence in the area to end. China has backed and armed Iran. In the event of a Persian Gulf war, the Chinese would love to see the US humiliated and the US influence and presence lessen in the area.

Excellent read. As with most black swans, there are probably hundreds of possibilities. One thing is certain, this is not going to end well.
