Also, the third world countries which, as we know from history, were the first victims of current Western comfort, bend in a system that prevents their development, because in the West many remember what has been and is done to them, till today, to subject them. Proud of their logic of perpetual warfare, it's hard to think that the paradigm of domination would change, as long as the West acknowledge being a superpower, which would be threatened by its victims. The system is designed in such a way that the countries which suffered the Western lightning yesterday cannot and must not develop. Not today nor tomorrow. The bombardment of Libya by the United States, France and Great Britain, enters into this logic of annihilation, of any inclinations for social and economic progress, and not an error of judgment as one of the architects of this war the former US President Barack Obama likes to point out. The pre-emptive strikes on Libya were clearly aimed at proving that the countries of the southern hemisphere should never have the means for substantial social and economic progress which could lead to military campaigns against the countries of the north, which were industrialized through slavery and the colonization of the populations of the south.

While technological progress is reducing and aging the population of the better-off countries of the north, systemic poverty and promiscuity fosters a high birth rate and a desire to look elsewhere to escape the systemic misery in the countries of the south. Logically one would think that the politicians of the North would see what is the best strategy to follow for their country. Unfortunately, pathological violence and protectionist reflexes cannot allow the adoption of thoughtful policies; and worse, these so-called developed countries, which have war in their DNA, are mired in class wars, asymptomatic of a natural cyclical decline. Instead of worrying about the revenge of their third world victims, the real danger that would spell their decline lies within them. Particularly the class war and the destruction of the middle class the backbone of society because it’s the class which by its know-how achieves everything dear to the comfort of the West with the help of the working class.

The Covid 19 pandemic, has succeeded in showing to the skeptics that now, in the West, the social divide has been consumed. It is more and more visible, as the economic situation forces a return to two classes, as in the feudal era which gave rise to serious disturbances.
