Can't help it. So many devilish pieces just fit like jigsaw daily and gradually dragging us all towards depression, anarchy and a damning world war.

Forget about a world war. Unlikely

SoNature:


Senseless fooll! Who are 'they'? Some of you here have lost your minds that you don't even know how to react to simple news stories without name calling and sentiments!

How dumb can you be ? Look at this waste of sperm that a single condom would have savd mankind from his sheer dumbness, i mention your name for there ? Na conscience dey blame you ?

Dumb fuckks whoring round this forum needs to be banned.

For those of us who don't under semantics of the stock market, datz a good tin right?

On January 1, 1914 and in the summer or 1936, many of both the mass and elite didn't see the wars coming.

I agree with you, a world war is most unlikely. Just that the eventuality of war in the future is independent of its likelihood today.

Terminator1234g:
Buhari is really working. People claim is unintelligent but even if he is, he loves his people and he can easily hire experts and intelligent people.

You don't know what you have till you lose it. I don't really support Buhari for 2019, i prefer Atiku. Buhari is a great man and his enemies will surely bake fake news and propaganda against him.

Buhari meant it when he said 1$ to 1N, yes he wasn't joking. But when he saw what evil PDP left for him it weakened his morale and he still struggled and worked hard.

He is trying and I'm sure he won't want to go for 2019 so he just want to fix things now and make things better now even though there isn't much time.

And i call upon the youths to stop drumming for obvious evil politicians.

And i call upon the youths to be wary of fani kayode. He's a dangerous criminal.

From you write-up I have come to think of you as reasonable person but don't you think Atiku poses more danger to us as a nation? I mean he isn't even a president yet and he Is already bouncing around from party to party. It shows he might not be loyal enough for this country.

CNN has always painted Nigeria and Nigerians in a negative light even with the most craziest of lies, however I don't know what to make of this.

Both WW1 and WWII were predictable.
Also, both wars were of such scale because large military alliances were necessary to overcome the enemy, infrastructure was underdeveloped and trade was sparse. Those conditions do not exist today. None of the top 10 global powers needs any allies to overcome an aggressor thanks to nuclear weapons. The technological age bears heavily on us and trade is now global - soon it will be be interplanetary - and no one wants to rock that boat.
Homo sapiens will no longer enact his violence on a global theatre. He is restricted to regional destruction.

Should the two world wars be as predictable as you suggest, I do not think humanity will willingly rush headlong into such wanton destruction. It thus appear revisionist to make such suggestion. How could the powermen in the government offices of London, Berlin, Paris, Vienna, Moscow or Sarajevo ever undertake such venture as WW1 if anyone knew the magnitude of the destruction it will inflict on humanity as well as ruling houses? But we digress...for this is not what the post is about.

Today's world appear to be running out of the established order which has been put in place since 1945. Nationalism and racial pride is on the rise, nations are resorting to unilateralism (ditto Russia in the Crimea, US on N/Korea, Brexit, S/Arabia in Yemen etc) and power blocs (ditto Russia-Iran in Syria, re-arming Japan/Korea, S/Arabia-Israel-UAE covert relations etc) rather than the slower but well mannered multilateral setting provided by the United Nations.

Mean and greedy money men are betting on the plausible outcomes of the unfolding chaos and this, IMHO, is the real reason for this high performing stocks across the globe.
