As I said; you are totally right. And I agree on building your own tools, this is a must be. But that does not happen instantly. At the same time this tool will not work for a long time and it is already not suitable for the job. You can use an axe's back side to hit nails but it will not do the job correctly, deform some nails, and there is a workplace hazard for using the axe's back as a hammer. But if you only have an axe, if you have 4 nails to hit along hundreds of them you just hit those 4 nails and then go to find a hammer. (As all analogies are, this analogy is wrong and incomplete too) The alternative is hitting those 4 nails with your bare hands and then finding a hammer or staying idle. Because there will be no hammers for a time.
The problem is someone else is building tools we have taken from them to chop trees, process wood, build a coffin and put some nails on our coffin. (Nails in this analogy have nothing to do with the first analogy)
I think current muslim world, especially arab spring is directly connected with creation of party.(we know the name) If you go back and rethink on especially between 2000-2008 in our country and the area around us it is very clear now. We can even connect there to collapse of Soviet Unioun, lack of enemies and need of enemies, rise of today's Russia and China, Brzezinski's forecast of the need of a belt between Europe and Asia(From Turkey to Poland). You can connect this to Europe's energy need and only near source as Russia. Then med. sea natural gas; its domination and domination of EU energy source. So; using energy that EU needs domiates EU, W-asia/E-Europe belt disconnects asia from Europe and gives control of asian trade routes to market into hands of offence and controls Asia's production.(no sale no production. But since China increased demand inside this has weakened) With controlled chaos in ME makes it easily manipulated and controlled. Chaos in states around east med. sea gives advantage to western energy companies and control of energy extraction and sales. A controlled and weakened Egypt in chaos ensures the control of biggest nat. gas reserves and control of one of two entrances of med. sea and its trade routes. A chaotic Yemen is another key element here.(But I think it did not work as intended) A puppet Kurdistan will errode Turkey-Iran-Syria-Iraq and make one of the hottest jeostrategic centers paralised and in constant chaos with a huge base of influence. List goes on... Considering these variables I think the party and its aim in the Middle East Project could be understood. But most of the tools in the party are inactive and they are getting ready again.
Global hegemony is changing. The power of production is changing. USA is losing blood since 70s drop by drop, global economy is having extreme troubles of stabilization since 90s. These changes, especially changes of hegemony does not happen without a huge war. And again, considering the variables I have given we can see where it is happening. I think it will not stop there. It will be another bad century for Europe.
