"All governments had better open their eyes for we are on the brink of a major convergence between both the Cycle of Civil Unrest, Civil War & Revolution and International War.
Both of these models converge and as I pointed out at the Cycles of War Conference, this is the first time we have seen this convergence since the 1700s.This is no plain modern event with civil unrest erupting because of an interconnected world.
These are grassroots uprisings cross-fertilized perhaps from a world contagion yet they often have similarities – corrupt governments.
Turkey, Ukraine, Thailand, Venezuela and Bosnia-Herzegovina are all middle-income democracies with elected leaders besieged by people angry at misgovernment, corruption and economic sclerosis.
These days it is no longer just dictators who have something to fear from the crowd.
This is the promise of Marxism that centralized planning and false promises are coming home and governments are too corrupt and incompetent to deliver what they have claimed for decades."
