Yes, it would be an ideal situation, but that means the U.S. loses its dominance. Russia and China have already suggested cooperation, but at the moment it’s America that won’t back down.
I’m a newbie and don’t want to be savaged at this early stage
, but I’ll put out some opinions. Although it deviates from the thread topic, it does concern America’s role in assuming responsibility in world affairs.
America has brought on itself the problems it now faces.
You can’t change centuries old cultures by invasions.
You can’t wander around the world removing dictators such as Saddam and Gaddafi who held potentially explosive countries together and wonder why it unleashed a Pandora’s box of nightmares.
You can’t enforce a system of democracy on those that don’t want it using moral relativism.
Look at the countries that have had invasions, regimes changes, Arab springs and ‘strategic surgical strikes’ (a polite euphemism for a bomb on your head if you fail to comply) and you’ll smell oil. Pakistan is a hot bed of terrorism and Saudi Arabia, a known funder of terrorism, is an autocratic monarchy, arguably a dictatorship itself. Both comply with the U.S; Libya, Iraq and Syria didn’t; Russia and China won’t, can you see a pattern emerging as NATO moves its forces close to the Russian border and the U.S. considers sending the navy and air force to the Chinese border?
