Articles of the year 2021

We have woken to a new world, safer and more predictable just by the removal of one man - Trump.
The world has had its worst nightmares since the height of the Cold War. Till the swearing of Biden anything could have happened. An attack on Iran, aided by Israel, an Indian attack on Pakistan abetted by Israel.
All these were scenarios waiting to happen. In the last few days an attack by America on America itself was imminent.
Never in the history of the world has a nation come so close to committing suicide and that too by the biggest and most advanced nation in the world, while the rest friend and foe watched spellbound while one man held the destiny of the US and the world in his grasp, tweet by tweet.
We have not been able to digest the defeat of the Soviet Union at the hands of tiny Afghanistan and subsequent break up of the mighty Soviet Republic of Russia.
The new world order is in the throes of a reshuffle. New alliances are being negotiated while old are being discarded as the new order takes shape.
Communism itself is being reshaped today, China is overtaking the United States as the most advanced and productive country in the world and will soon leave the US in its wake.
The new advances in science are mostly in the english language, thanks to the dominance of the english language in the last one hundred years.
Today most scientific papers are published in the english language making them available through out the english speaking world.
A huge American footprint in trade, commerce, shipping, aviation are all communication in the english language where English is now the preferred medium of communication.
Luckily for the world the Trump danger has passed and the multiple threats that the world faced with the unpredictability of Trump not knowing which direction his new threat will take.
China has shown that communism can indeed mature and morph into an advanced political form. Its most magnificent achievement has been the uplifting of three hundred million people into a middle class from poverty. This has been the greatest symbol of upward progress for such a huge population in a scant 20 years. This has been done without a war or any conquest.
The scale of success is unparalleled in human history. The basis of this success can be traced to the importance given to discipline by the Chinese leadership. This discipline has created China and will be the reason for their continued success. Many nations fail for lack of discipline. This is precisely the reason for the downfall of the US. Trump brought divisive forces and brought disorder to a once cohesive nation.
The 6th of January 2021 showed the US almost disintegrating under the new Trump policy of fragmentation. State was poised against state and were being pushed into a battle, so widespread was the belief of cheating of the 2020 election as promoted by Trump.
His continuation of lie upon lie split the US into two equal and opposite entities. This would have been the break up of America without a shot being fired. The danger is not yet over.
