briefly, much of this can be summarized as the usa and friends losing the type of power and leverage they have had since the end of ww2 and the establishment of many important institutions... i think this trend will continue, but they still have a fair amount of power... many of the examples in your post are testimony to these 'slowly but surely' changes taking place.. i think many see the winds of change and being fickle players, are going with the direction the wind is taking them... very few seem guided by principles, but i could be wrong about that.. either way, the changes are positive...
what to do about israels wanton disregard for any sense of balance or perspective is unlikely to change soon, but even here, i had heard of a demonstration of 3/4 of a million israel citizens opposed to the present gov't policies.. maybe i have that wrong, but again - the people of these countries don't necessarily align with the leadership decisions being made at present.... look at germany and france for recent examples via the byelections and elections for more examples... people are saying no to what their leaders are pushing on them... that is ultimately very positive when their leaders are so off track..
thanks ismaele...
