Based on her work for a CIA task force aimed at predicting civil wars, political scientist Barbara F. Walter examines the rise in extremism and threats to democracies around the globe -- and paints an unsettling picture of the increasing likelihood of a second civil war in the United States. Since 1946 over 250 Civil Wars have broken around the world.


Is the US Headed Towards Another Civil War? | Barbara F. Walter | TED

Looking at the current political stances and the general displeasure of the public, a lot of countries might get into civil wars as well.

I think you are right mate, especially given that there have been 250 civil wars since 1946. It all comes down to a struggle for power and how militant the various leaders are in their push for the power.

As an aside, I wonder what, if any, the offshoot will be post the Voice Referendum given the combative, belligerent and aggressive stance of many of the so-called, self-appointed leaders of the aboriginal and YES groups.

I thought it was interesting that she pointed a finger at the "ring wing" when, from my studies of history, it seems that the "left wing" is usually the first to resort to violence. My perception is that the "left" is responsible for all the rioting, etc. in the US in recent years. BLM, for example, is a self proclaimed Marxist organization.

The tension is certainly building in the US.

That word, MARXIST, seems to be cropping up on a regular basis. Our current Prime Minister, who is the driving force behind the Referendum to amend our Constitution (funny how our politicians ignore it until they want to use it for their own means) by adding a section to include the indigenous in the Constitution, is a long time proven Communist. Silly thing is, the indigenous are already included in the Constitution as Australians. Anyway, our PM, Anthony Albanese (who I call AnAl Sleazy) is pushing hard towards dividing the country and causing a Racial Division of the people…blacks and whites.

If the Referendum Yes vote is successful, it is paramount to handing the country “back” to the aboriginals whose ancestors were here 250 years ago when the English arrived. Imagine handing the US back to the Native Americans who then can, and will, charge rent (including for the past years) for pretty much everything on what they consider to be their land, because that is what has been talked about out here. As it is, the militant self-proclaimed activist leaders have already started renaming places and areas back to what they “believe” the original aboriginal name was. To them it’s all about power and money…I’ve heard the term Aboriginal Industry bandied about, and most of these individuals are more white than white!!!





Come the revolution….

I believe you will find its all part of a UN agenda and I believe is #21 we have seen the power play happen here... the gun grab is part of it and is even suggested how to do it.... interesting piece of paperwork that is on the net to be seen...
Helen Clark signed NZ up to it and taxcinder followed her skirt tails.....
for the last 50 years we have been told we must treat everyone as equals..then this crap comes along and its VERY close to apartied..eg the colour of your bum defines which laws apply to you...and the woke left wing crowd simply cant see that simple truth.
there isnt a more polite way to put it....

You hit the nail squarely on the head when you said WOKE mate. The UN started out as a reasonable organisation that had the welfare of all people in mind…the the crazies and nut bags took over the running of the asylum. The unfortunate part of it is we will never be able to rid the world of the UN because it is too firmly ensconced, entrenched, in the world today…with those mentally challenged firmly in control…most of who are ANTIs!!!

Damn it…I started again.

And we have a White House full of them.
