While the blueprints for a just one-polar world did not exactly reduce that risk. And many wpould agree that the world is more instabile today, than it was before 1989, when two mutual counterbalances kept the world in balance. Since then, with one counterbalance temporarily suspended from the show, it became turbulent. |
The world is no more turbulent today than it ever was Skybird. We are just more aware of it thanks to the wonders of modern communications technology. I don't need to remind you of the propensity for multiple power bases to clash with each other in hugely destructive wars.
