There are brewing conflicts everywhere, in many cases interconnected and with such a cacophony of players that even seasoned diplomats are confused. To make things worse, we have a non-functioning UN Security Council and a lack of will by the international community to… Continue Reading

My belief, which I think is widely shared, is that no one expects the U.S. to pay back its debts – so in reality we have already defaulted.
