Bleak Possibility?

In the next couple of months there will be issues that will grab attention or will be missed. But under either of the circumstances it will have consequences that will go down in history as important events.

Within the South Asia region, one civil war has ended (Sri-Lanka) another one has started Pakistan operation in the border areas by the army and the counter attack they are facing. (attack on the military camp etc.)

The upcoming "operation green hunt" in India, if the army is called from its barrack then it will be a dangerous thing. Having the para-military is more than enough, bringing full army against its own civilian is a bad choice to make.

Afghanistan will be a boiling cauldron and this is will be a mess that everyone will remember. A half-baked strategy which involves only the military never works. And that needs to be worked through to accomplish the right results. (Unless the right result is just to make money even if it results in mounting body bags)

Water and food crisis are now present in the headlines although its kind of late reaction. The media reports leave the impression it will have effect on all countries and the world will be divided again in a different way.

This will transcend to a new breed of war that will be seen in near future. This will be the new age of war which will be fought through the Sovereign Wealth Funds and Cyber Warfare. New wave of cold-war would be better term to say. Don't know how many countries are looking at this seriously but it will have great consequences.
