A war making half a million dead (no one knows exactly how many) in a couple of years in Europe out of all places is currently out of main news cycle as if by now it's totally routine. We get to actually discover how contemporary warfare pans out between two big conventional armies. No airstrike overkill of local peasants with Ak47 and IEDs as in Iraq.
Another "war" is being waged in Gaza under guidelines that would have been familiar to Assyrians when setting Tyre and Sidon and all the Fertile Crescent ablaze.
"A phrase oft-repeated by Assyrian kings in their inscriptions regarding military conquests is "I destroyed, devastated, and burned with fire" those cities, towns, and regions which resisted Assyrian rule."
Again very different from Iraq. The Js actually want to win and they are willing to do what has been shown since time immemorial you need to do in order to win. Not that I'm justifying them, it's more of a critique against the Us "war on terror".
Not much is going to happen to the economy this year I am afraid, the Dems want to win the elections after all. Americans will progressively move back their production lines to the US and Mexico in the coming years as a response to the decline of globalisation. More reliance on Anglo countries like Canada and Australia for raw materials, UK will become de-facto NAFTA.
