"If we're moving back to a might-makes-right world we are doomed to a future of new world wars and untold carnage."

In my view, we never left a "might-makes-right world". It's the underlying reality of human existence and human nature. And yes, that absolutely does mean that our future holds new world wars and untold carnage. Is it a particularly happy thought? No, not really. But it's part of the human experience.
