KARMA seems to me to be an amalgamation of various political entities with only a loose, common threat. The New Pacific Order. I sincerely feel that this is the worst possible thing that could take place given that once this war ends, the bonds that bind these entities together will slowly dissolve, and it will result in the various power plays and power grabs that inevitably take place after a superpower is displaced.
This war, in my opinion, is a travesty. Not because one side is losing to another, or because one side is claiming victory or moral superiority. It is a travesty because both sides failed to listen to each other. There was a grave miscommunication, and a failure to listen to reason. Both sides wanted this fight, and now, both sides shall have it.
