I think a new Falklands war will be only a part of the **** that is going to kick off in the next 20 years. We have already seen uprisings in Egypt and Libya, now there is something going on in Syria. The whole Occupy Wall Street thing has taken off around the world. People are already unhappy with the current state of the world and the direction in which it is going. Past generations goals in life were to get a job, save money, buy a house, have a family, then die.
The youth of today want everything, and don't want to work for it. They are all spoon fed by mummy and daddy, given the latest iPhones, laptops, TV's, holidays etc, that when it comes time for them to fend for themselves, they wont want to. The world is now in so much debt, and the ideology of the future generations isn't going to change that. They will spend money they dont have, to keep up with the latest fashion trends that they won't be buying houses or saving for their old age. Things they need to do. The 99% want all this money, yet aren't prepared to work for it. In the UK, a good example is the Poles. They are brought in because they will do the work that the British wont do. There is work out there. But they wont do it. The bad thing about the Poles is that all their money earnt goes offshore back to Poland for their families.
In Oz, the government here is left of center, and imo Socialist. Julia loves Unions which are ruining our maritime industry because they only have 10 types of jams (true story). She is looking to give all our taxpayers money to bludgers who want to sit on their ass in a pub collecting the dole because they dont want to work incase they miss a gnarly wave down the beach. I work hard, and each year there is a new tax I have to contend with because they are overspending on ****e. Combine the middle class tax payers who are supporting the nation, coupled with the bludgers who want everything and dont want to work for it... there is going to be something that will kick off. We are getting fed up. Same in the UK. Im sure you are in a similar situation, and although it has been a while since I lived there, when I go back, i see how much it has changed.
So yes, while a resource war over the Falklands is a strong possibility, i reckon it's only going to be one of a number of conflicts that will come about in the next 20 years. The world is heading for a revolution, all it's going to take is a spark.
