There can be no “clash of civilizations” when the west has retreated into savage self-defeating barbarism.

“The decline of Empires can be simplified down to one or a combination of four key reasons: economic failure, political enemies, Internal division, and natural causes.”—Google

Peoples of the west have to recognize the empire only sustains its dominance through perpetrating violence, chaos and war. It is the perpetual trouble maker. It is determined to deny the world community the essential equilibrium we must have to survive and prosper. It must be denied the tools of it malicious trade.

The awful shadow of some unseen Power
Floats tho’ unseen amongst us, -visiting
This various world with as inconstant wing
As summer winds that creep from flower to flower.-
Like moonbeams that behind some piny mountain shower,
It visits with inconstant glance
Each human heart and countenance;
Like hues and harmonies of evening,-
Like clouds in starlight widely spread,-
Like memory of music fled,-
Like aught that for its grace may be
Dear, and yet dearer for its mystery.

—Percy Bysshe Shelley, Hymn to Intellectual Beauty, read full poem here
