The world’s different parts are seeing old conflicts escalate, and the new ones set on fire, all at once. We observe a chain of interconnected armed confrontations united by a single feature: all of them have been anyhow provoked by the United States or its closest allies. And each may well escalate into a global war.
Wars are a "birthmark" of mankind. But present-day developments signify a clear social anomaly of history: despite apprehending the danger, humanity is stubbornly pushing itself towards a global conflict, towards its own destruction. Different parts of the world are all but simultaneously — coincidence or not? — witnessing this kind of conflicts being set on fire to engage dozens of countries in one way or another. The antagonistic parties to them seem to have no chance of a peaceful outcome. Consider the one between the West and Russia by proxy of Ukraine, where the latter sees the only way out in Kiev regime’s fall and Ukraine’s return to Russia’s fold.
And yet, that war has faded into the background amid the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which exploded on October 7th after having smoldered since the middle of the last century. Its violence and the parties’ historic mutual hatred may turn the confrontation into a fuse for a full-fledged Middle East war or then WWIII.
Or take at least the historic Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict that flared up unexpectedly, capable of setting dozens of countries on fire of an all-out war, including remote ones. Along with that, the conflict is constantly sparking, flaring up and fading away between the Orthodox Serbs and other Western Balkan peoples, primarily between the Serbs of greater Serbia and the Kosovo Albanians. In all these conflicts, the warring parties’ insurmountable antagonism has entailed awful cruelty, which in itself amplifies them and brings to the depths of insolubility.
The list should be supplemented by the would-be Washington-incited conflict between China and the United States over Taiwan, as well as the non-complete war between the two Koreas, in which DPRK’s despair makes it closer that anyone else to launching nuclear missiles able to reach the US coast. The list of dangerous hot points should include the smoldering irreconcilable conflict between the United States on the one hand, and Cuba, Nicaragua and Venezuela on the other.
The key feature of all the planet’s ongoing and simmering conflicts is their non-bilateral and no longer regional character. Each of them has a superpower mastermind, whether explicitly or covertly. The whole world has been de facto divided into two nearly irreconcilable camps fighting with each other by numerous proxies. These two substantial parts — let's call them this way — have existed independently from each other. The first one is the US-led collective West as represented by a variety of military blocs and "civic" organizations forming its military, financial and economic backbone. The West portrays it as a universal world order, though serving the interests of the United States and its allies alone.
The second camp is Russia, China, India and the new BRICS members that openly or tacitly oppose the US hegemony. One may argue about BRICS’ strength and stability of the processes it initiated to form a new multipolar world. But it is evident to anyone that this bloc has become the only global anti-American platform to potentially unite those seeking multipolarity.
Global division into two warring camps and everyone’s inclination to either of them has determined the central feature of all the ongoing world conflicts that could have been definitely called regional just half a century ago. Today, the conflicting countries’ affiliation with one of the two irreconcilable parts endues any modern conflict with a potential to escalate into WWIII. It’s about globalization of conflicts that used to reckon as regional.
The world’s irreconcilability is brought about by the ultra-liberal globalist elite’s frenetic willingness to dominate the planet. With the American "deep state" forming its backbone, it determines the essence of the first camp and aims to depopulate the planet up to the notorious "golden billion". For this reason, the so-called "gender freedom" has been imposed across the board since the end of 1990s.
The globalist elite is unable to peacefully coexist with the second part of mankind as fundamentally contradicting its obsession with the idea of global financial and spiritual dominance, despite everyone else’s resistance. And the only way to suppress it is to cast the whole world into a social collapse, deprive people of what they need, and then come to the forefront with a "brilliant" proposal meant to overcome it, which any war-hit person would be broadly sympathetic to. A global collapse may be achieved by means of a world war. That is why the United States has masterminded every armed conflict in the world, either defusing or igniting the fire to the right degree.
