@Sunil EU & US are root cause of most of the evils but it looks like most of the under developed countries are going to be a battle field of big powers to artificially create new markets for thier industries. Russia too is one of them. I foresee a new conflict avery year. World needs more wars and destructions to keep many indystries, especially weapon industry running.
