I know it's a gloomy question and I know some of todays problems go back longer than I could probably imagine but since the turn of the century we've had Iraq and Afghanistan. Recently we've seen N.Korea playing with misslies and Iran stirring things up the nuclear way. Right now Israel and Lebanon are blowing chunks out of each other and today I read Ethiopia has invaded Somalia. What are your opinions? No religious leaning answers please because I can't help notice religion plays at least a major role in all of the above.

Yes. You should also have mentioned the fact that Bush's alliance with Russia is failing (as a former KGB agent tightens his grip on the country and refuses to condemn Hizbollah), and Venezuela (a big oil producer) has joined forces with the Colombian, Brazilian, and Bolivian leftist leaders.
Not to mention that China is cracking down on Taiwan (whom we have promised to protect), and Iraq's problems have gotten so much worse in the past few weeks.
As for those who blame the "liberals and democrats" or "Bush and the conservatives", most of these problems have been building for years, if not decades, and are due to a mix of poor policies that came from both sides of the aisle, as well as problems that are between those other countries and have nothing to do with us (other than which side we previously claimed as our allies, or which side we siold weapons to).

It sure seems that way doesn't it ? And it is a gloomy question, but one we all are facing. All these things you mentioned are affecting the whole world--we will all play some roll in it,sadly to say.
One thing about religion-- you are right, but a JUST God wouldn't want his people killing each other over him--- they don't know what God really is!!!!!!

I don't think so, and I bet someone here is going to blame President Bush.
Isn't that the answer to all the problems in the world, Bush??
If it rains, it's Bush's fault, if my grades slip, it's Bush's fault.
How about the liberal party stop blaming Bush and just realize it's democrats and liberals that are the problem.

Yes, I definitely do... there are too many countries who can't agree on too many things and are unwilling to compromise.
