Asia The next Powder Keg & The Beginning of World War 3

STRATFOR Robert D. Kaplan on the Rise of Asia (Agenda) The Rise of Asia may not last. There's Sino-Japanese conflict. Sino-Indian conflict. Indo-Pak conflict. So on. If war breaks out. Asia is doomed. Whereas Europe is far far less likely to see warfare. Same can be said about North America.Fact: Asia is dependent on primary resource imports. China is just a collapse waiting to happen. The western regions (especially Tibet) and the Cantonese-speaking regions are going to experience a rise in nationalist movements against the Mandarins. By the way, the word 'niche' is pronounced "NEESH", not "nitch". I personally am fine with Japan's increased nationalism and military size, because they are one of our closest allies now. Once again, history repeats itself. I think we all know what would happen next, but hopefully we have learnt our lesson. If not....I don't think there would be another chance
