OP-ED: The world isn't flat, it's flattened, By Spengler, Asia Times Online, Oct 28, 2008
Good baseline analysis, but hyperbolic to the point of hysterical on the follow-on implications.
To be read as an example of uncontrollable fear-mongering for a column that doesn't usually wet its pants in public.
Kind of embarrassing for the brand.
That's not to say that some of the listed bad things won't happen, just that they won't cause a similar pants-wetting on the U.S. side.
You see an article like this and you realize why only America can really play Leviathan. The rest of the world simply loses it during times of tumult.
