was predicted and foreseeable decades ago, because of the minerals and resources in the wider area. Security is secondary, because a Big War would go down way further south and the nuclear capable airplanes would only crash land there, if ever, in cases of emergency.
The mineral safety perspective on building and securing national interests is a problem, in my opinion and a missconception that was put into a strategy during the coal intensive industrialisation of its early years.
Coal is a great example.
Coal is a main mineral. It is digged out from open or closed mines and used to burn in basically steam machines until today. Today, we also understand that this Coal causes changes in the composition of our planets atmosphere, increases lung deseases in the close approximity of its use as fuel and that it is also base for other high tech materials that find little scientific research.
Than, there are also alternatives to Mineral Coal. Human and Animal Dung can be dried and by adding sugar used as an alternative fuel. All celluloid creating plants, which is everything with a trunk of any kind, can be turned into wood coal.
Doing the math we are destroying THE base for future high tech materials we have not even developed yet, while not exploiting all means of an older known technology.
Who buys a new car when the old still is running fine?
Exactly, those that don't mind a Credit and are ruling these days despite knowing better.
There are not only Confederate Conspiracies that actively want to hurt the U.S. creating monopole markets under tight surveillance breaking laws up to murder, there is even worse a huge amount of humans being stuck in their comfort zone and resting there.
Not using your potential is also a Sinn of Death which is a set of moral ideas defined in the Renaissance as a result of the victory against Feudalist Terror over large parts of Europe reflecting on how it could come to the Dark Mid Ages and the bloody, brutal wars for freedom or surpression that shaped that time of desease and violance.
Egoism, Selfishness, Eating Disorders, Drug Use, Ignorance and Arrogance are as bad as sitting duck every time you know you could cause an impact for the better even without any personal risc.
There is a Condom Safer Sex advert from the 90ies that shows the opposite. A teacher finds a Condom in the locker room and intimidating the entire class of minors asks them in the sports hall whom's it was. Someone realises that a girl is starting to feel uncomortable and sweats about to reveal herself. He stands up and sais its mine. The next moment another guy stands up and sais its mine. The entire class stands shortly thereafter.
Deeper, but of the same topic, is the Movie Dead Poet Society.
We only will survive this time of the Dark Modernity ending if we live the blessings of life over the sinns of death each to is capability.
GO your path, but go
