I have been mostly encouraged by the exchange of ideas here recently. I especially appreciate being able to learn more of views and insights from Asia, as it has been a while since I was regularly visited the region.
Here in the USA, I don't see the current disruptions leading to anything other than emboldening our enemies. They will think that America is "coming apart at the seams", which it isn't, and will think that our domestic troubles will somehow prevent us from dealing with aggression overseas.
I fully agree with John that the vast majority of Americans are still patriotic, and that they will stand up to foreign aggression. When it comes, I believe it will unify most of the country.
I think we will have a serious domestic problem during the coming World War, but it will not be a "civil war", but an insurrection by a violent minority. A minority that actually wants some kind of dictatorship to "force" people to believe a certain dogma.
