Well written- 40 claps; all of these geopolitical decisions are based in the failure of humans to find an egalitarian way of life. All nation states are willing to sacrifice the people it is an illusion to think otherwise. There are no easy answers in the world WE have all chosen to build- one where competition and capitalism is how we divide resources.
What a world it could be if we embraced a different way but until then there will always be war and civilians will die in horrible ways.
We are greedy fearful monkeys and it wont end well JAFO all good we will make great pets. I hope the insects do a better job in the next phase of earth.
