""True decision making power will move to the G8 or to the G20 actually because you can't have a world where the decisions are made in wich India is not represented, where Brazil is not represented. And yes, the security council will still exists and it will still be, you know, a place where people will make speeches. But, will it be a place where people will make decisions ? No.""
Let me assure you Zakaria, Russia and China are not in the wrong side of history and there is no criteria can be assumed - logically - that might lead to such ( Prophecy) will happen 20 or even 50 years from now, there.
USA try to show they are good guy by killing in Gaza, Palastain, in Iraq and more and lots of civilian in Afganistan. Iran in its 500 years do not invade any country. History shows USA is the bad guy in the beginning of its creations. See the fact, not friction broadcast daily in CNN, Fox News etc. American eye wash and brain wash, mind control channel. American must cross check the fact, not the media lies in Israeli-American owned CNN, Fox News, Walt Street Journal, US congress etc.
What a talking head this guy, I have seen him a couple of times at CNN and he seems to me like the brother of of W Blitzer at CNN, nothing more than talking heads!
Zakaria is very bright but he is an elitist and in favor of elites running the country. Read his book "Illiberal Democracy: At Home and Abroad". He is making the mistake of giving Obama too much credit before anything he has implemented has had a chance to either fail or suceed.
Aww, boohoo, America's not the big bully in the playground anymore, and we can't handle it. it reminds me of middle school, when the "popular" kids would try to push me around, then pitch fits when I wouldn't let them. :3
His big flaw is that his views are too narrow and too Americanized therefore - shallow.
"if he was Russian, he would worry about..."
Well he's not Russian,that's why he don't need to worry about Russia !
He should worry about absence of true democracy in USA, as well as social justice!
But above all, he should worry about barbarian foreign policy of U.S, which oppress millions of people worldwide, and millions are already killed ! ! !
How convenient that the same foreigners who come here and thrive, are the first to jump ship when they can no longer exploit the country for their own personal benefit. This is why globilization doesn't work, because the majority of immigrants will have alligience to their own country of origin, their own culture, and their own people.
Well, although this happens, you need to consider a few other things as well. Do you really believe your country thrives on its own, that if the rich countries had not exploited poorer nations "for their own benefits", you would be where you are today?? Second, being a rich country, you use to get the brightest abroad to further the american society but now that people want more and more to go back to their country and help develop them + see opportunities elsewhere, you think it is unfair??
11 minutes of bullshit. But pretends to be smart . Why isn't he talking about huge debt western countries owe to private banks???? If he is so smart, why he isn't mentioning big corporations braking business ethics. Brainwashing+bullshit=western elite
Despite Israel's harsh protests, Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet published a second article accusing the IDF [Israel Defense Forces] of harvesting Palestinian organs. In the article, published Sunday, Oisín Cantwell and Urban Andersson report from the northern West Bank village of Imatin, where 19-year-old Bilal Ahmad Ghanem was killed during a clash with Israeli soldiers in 1992. Ghanem's family claims that his body was returned several days later, wrapped in hospital bandages.........
Hey Zakaria, Obama has NOT ended torture, he has NOT ended the war, he HAS given OUR money to his banker friends AND he RENEWED the (un)Patriot Act. Obama has put military industrial complex lobbyists in the Pentagon to run the American business of death and put Monsanto lobbyiest in charge of OUR food.
This guy is full of it. Ever since he posited that GW Bush did well in the Pres. debates I knew he was stuffed with bull. America is going to take a secondary role because America is a declining world power. The IMF, the world bank! you mean the organizations that foisted loans on the 3rd world that they knew that they could not pay. Oh yes, we need that--NOT! Obama has only changed the location of torture. America propped up radicle groups and dictators in the middle east and elsewhere..
yeah that was shitty how we took a murderous dictator and made him pay for his actions wasn't that a bad thing to do. The world would be so much better off if he was still around killing his own people. Al Qaeda well Afghanistan would be a better place today if we just let them be and let the taliban oppress their people. Man what were we thinking :)
there's 2 kinds of murderous dictators, those who do it in plain sight, and others that do it out of sight and support nations that do. The US government has seen a lot of the latter.
Did you know that the gasses used by Iraq are US and western made? And that the US supported Iraq in a war 2 years before the gulf war?
The Taliban by all means are around because the US was naive enough to think that the enemy of their enemy was a friend.
You dumb fuck the U.S., just like any other nation, doesn't have the authority to police the world and implement what they believe is the proper way to govern and live. Furthermore you don't send in a whole fucking army to kill one man if that is your true intention. The Iraq war, with all the other wars and military interventions, is not only against the constitution, it has destroyed the country, both economically and socially. Hussein posed no threat, and was likely to be overthrown anyway.
in order to have economic prosperity in a country you have to have security.. Thats the key ingredient to globalization if you really want your country to be able to strive in todays economic conditions you have to have some sort of security.. Therefore it is our duty to help other nations respond to todays growing challenges.. Hussein posed no threat and would be overthrown?? lol let me clue you in in case you forgot what happened to the last people who dared stand up to them.. their DEAD
That "murderous dictator" was an CIA asset who started to think he was actually in control so we took him out. There are any number of examples of these scum who kill their own people and we do nothing. Besides as DefenseSpeech says we have no such right to be the world's policeman,
The 1990's had the markets move to more restrictive capitalism. And that trend is continuing. Loopholes were cut open for some big businesses, while continuing to wire things up for everyone else.
The only thing free market in the 1990's was the internet. And of course it boomed.
It goes with the thought that to maintain peace, both sides need to threaten eachother into doing nothing. Like the cold war. Now it's like the US just sends troops where it likes. It's a bit like Isreal in mentality, the Palistinians do not have the capacity to push them back, so they do what they like.
You would have thought north Korea would be much higher on the agenda...it's a country that needs liberating, but of course they've invested in their deterrents, and so nothing will happen.
And so while the countries that need attention get ignored, the US will continue to encourage AND force countries under its influence until it can get around to the real problems. I really wish there was a second superpower in the form of the EU or China so that the US can once again be encourage to concentrate on something else instead of satisfying their appetite for flexing their muscles, and stay in their own back yard.
its a global economy. Nobody stays in " their own back yard " everyone has influences in the world today. Look at your suggestion for China and the EU you don't think they have influence over other countries for financial and political reasons primarily for energy resources. America isn't the only one doing this China just uses soft power for right now..
Yes they do, and the most succesful ones do. If you look at quality of life, the US is behind countries a lot of Americans probably haven't even heard of. That's the thing though, I don't see China willing to engage in conflicts to invest in the countries they are taking over and installing pupet governments in. What is needed is a country to say "No, we don't want you to do that" like the USSR did.
in a weird way I think the world would be a little bettter today if the soviet union were still around. They kept the radical muslims at bay.. They held America to much higher standards and kept our government in check.. My government really fucked up after the fall of the soviet union. They lost alot of good opportunities to prepare the world for a brighter future but we live and learn man.
United States is just pissed they're the only ones in the world who Putin won't let use his Gazprom for cheap fuel, and get niggered at the pump everyday.
They need their democratic republic back. That is, restrain government to powers only given with their constitution. If some believe the constitution is a "living document" and subject to change, they are right. But only through a constitutional amendment. The rules don't change simply because they don't feel like following them anymore.
Is this guy tripping ? He has not stopped torturing ! Don't let him come on here and lie !Did you see the torture going on in the sTreets of Pittsburgh ,He has cut water to farmers in Cal. They are fixing to force an unneeded ,life threatening vacc upon the people of Us & around the Globe ! No SIR .the torture has not stopped !The war for Profits is still occurring ,Is it not ?/ Is that not Torture ! Man that guy perception is askew !Wonder how much he got paid to say that ?
hes just promoting the american program for the 21st century. tie asia up in regional fights with the local "extremists" they created themself in the 20th century and encircle russia with bases and if possible set up russia vs china so their 2 biggest competitors for world dominations get out of the way and maul eachother into insignificance while america runs off with the world as loot lol
