The ramifications of a uni-polar world.

For a long time the world had two super powers U.S.S.R and the U.S.A . In this modern and technologically advanced world unfortunately there is a single power the States . This sad development has lead to so many abuses. Inspite of the U.S. being my favourite country for the way it handles a multi cultural democracy it also fosters upon itself and the world through an election a single man as a leader. And unfortunately as is the bane of democracy the election can always elect an absolutely innappropriate person to head the nation.

This in the recent past has lead to mishandling of issues from Iraq to Isreal to India. Notice the rather "I" policy that States seems to be following.It is always the US interest at first and not the world interests at large.Iraq is a mishap which is already happened, Isreal with all the problems that it face due to a largely Muslim neighbourhood and a militant Hezbollah has now become a violent aggressor .It gets its bombs from the states feeding the US war machinery which feeds the richest in America.

India is told to control its nuclear capabilities whereas Pakistan gets its F-16's.

The world looks for leadership but it is foolishness which is happening here.
In a fanatically religious world which happens to be a creation of the cold war and divided sides technology has meant the most destructive weapon.Information is available to all and misguided jihadists seem to be making the best of it trying to be the only power to take on the States and its allies specially Isreal.China the largest country is very inward looking.Where does a solution lie??

Unfortunately there is no solution to this unless there is a multi-polar world with almost equally powerful economies which does not seem to happen for some time to come!!!
