Western World Crisis

The war that lasted nearly ten years and even tend to embarrass the U.S. and the West in general.


THESIS Samuel Huntington about the clash of civilization (civilization clash), consciously or unconsciously, has plunged the West into the abyss of previously unimaginable crisis. In the 1990s, when the Soviet Union disintegrated and collapsed, the United States to be a winner and became the only super power country. But because it was won, the U.S. became jumawa. He was like feeling "lonely" and searched for the enemy. That's when Samuel Huntington's book appeared titled Clash of Civilization (1993) which states will be the clash between six or seven world civilizations, namely Western, Islamic, Confucian, Hindu, African, and Latin America. The most probable clash into a hot fire point is the conflict between Western civilization and Islam.
Huntington was a scholar from Harvard University who made the analysis. Yet this is precisely the analysis steps followed by U.S. President George W. Bush with an attack against Afghanistan (2001) subsequent invasion of Iraq (2003). That is why, increasingly harsh criticism directed at Huntington to call it a provocateur. Rare United States as a leader when it followed throughout the West in Muslim countries invaded. Although West did not recognize that their step as the fruit of inspiration from Huntington, but in fact, almost every step taken no single step out of the thesis.
Regardless of whether the collapse of World Trade Center (WTC) in Washington from a terrorist attack led by Osama bin Laden as a step or a Western conspiracy, which would cause the event the U.S. has a "ticket" to attack any country desired. By cooperating with allies who are members of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), American troop overthrow the Taliban-led Afghanistan. Lapse of two years later, the same power undermine the Iraqi government led by Saddam Hussein.
Logically, the U.S. and its allies will win this battle very easily. Because, the U.S. is the country's largest and sole super power, plus all the allied countries in the European Union, Asia and even Australia. Indeed, the Taliban government in Afghanistan and Saddam Hussein in Iraq collapsed. However, the war could not be quits in quick time. The war that lasted nearly ten years and even tend to embarrass the U.S. and the West in general.
NATO forces did manage to kill tens of thousands of Afghan people suspected Taliban members and suspected of killing the Iraqi people become followers of Saddam Hussein. But many victims of the Afghan people and the Iraqi insurgents do not discourage resistance against this occupation army. When the U.S. is more focused to do battle in Iraq, while it also fought persistent insurgents. As one grows a thousand dead. Although a lot of casualties, but the Muslim guerrillas can hit back the U.S. and its allies with weapons of a simple rocket.
However, throughout the war in Iraq, 5,000 U.S. troops and allies were killed in the Country A Thousand and One night, and more than 3,000 people of Western soldiers killed in Afghanistan. Even in the last month, 45 NATO soldiers killed in Afghanistan. So the U.S. blamed Iraq's neighbors, Iran. Bush and his successor Barack Obama accused Iran of being behind the Iraqi people's resistance against the occupation of the West. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad never admit it, but he was always in a loud voice against Western hegemony in the Muslim world. So many sentences designed the U.S. and its allies through the United Nations (UN). Instead of effective sanctions, the U.S. and its allies even more cornered. Instead, Ahmadinejad's name more popular in the Muslim world.
U.S. and NATO also blamed Pakistan border allegedly used to hide al Qaeda and Taliban forces. That is why, the U.S. repeatedly attacked Pakistan using unmanned aircraft. In fact, this attack had killed Pakistani forces. And the Pakistan-US relations had chills, so that the supply of accommodation from Pakistan into Afghanistan had faltered. Even hundreds of tanks carrying fuel for NATO forces sabotaged the Taliban.
Internal factors also affect Western society alotnya U.S. victory in the war in Afghanistan and Iraq. U.S. propaganda about the war against terrorism associated with Islamic radicalism would lead to Western societies that have curious (curiousity) became curious about Islam. That is why, they were a lot of studying the Koran and Islamic teachings. Most Western societies were later converted to Islam. Even some West season went into battle in Iraq and Afghan troops against their own country.
Various factors that cause the West never won a war, even a crisis that was finally trapped unclear when the recovery. A number of countries have been allies to leave Iraq and Afghanistan. U.S. and some EU countries that still survive the world crisis. Surviving the war will cost a very large, with the absurd victory. So the best, the West better flag of peace, than war .***
