Words are tools that do not require that the person be born with any physical strength or creative mind to use to get his way despite the resistance of others. In the last two thousand years, and specifically in the 1st millennium, mankind relied on the truth and good suggested in religious and philosophical books to dominate and kill each other. The most notable transformation in mankind’s ongoing search during this 1st interval to determine who could make the weakest consider the opinion of the fittest before taking action on his own happened when, in the middle of the 1st millennium, the companions of the Islamic Prophet Muhammad managed to build the most successful political religious community to date. In the 2nd millennium, mankind switched and began to rely on the truth and good included in constitutions to dominate and kill each other. The most notable transformation in mankind’s ongoing search during this 2nd interval to determine who could make the weakest consider the opinion of the fittest happened when, in the middle of the 2nd millennium, people penned that all human beings are created equal and built the most successful political-free community to date (the United States).

This book tries to show that the decline in peace and security that has been crystallizing since the start of the 3rd millennium could be due to the decision of the families/dynasties who control the nations that won WW2 (i.e., western European monarchs and republics) letting their critical thinkers and servants (governments and international institutions) deviate away from the work program that their fathers (the old powers) suggested they observe in the UN Charter and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) to keep their dominant role in favor of letting those subordinates become at par with them, just as the families/dynasties who were controlling the Roman Empire / Christianity and the families/dynasties who were controlling the Islamic Empire did in the first millennium culminating in their decline (decay) and collapse. The book tries to support that if the western European monarchs and republics (the principal victors of WW2) do not stop their critical thinkers and servants from denying people right to cooperate in accordance with the UN Charter and the UDHR so people do not continue to generate the same outcomes that colonialism produces (direct occupation or people movement to produce settler colonialism), it would not be possible to stop mankind from continuing to get caught in the dogmatic and tribal demagogue that its toll would deteriorate the international order until people start to establish relations in the same way people were doing it before Christianity emerged. This was also exactly the way people have done it since the birth of Jesus, excluding the period when the Rashidun Caliphs ruled from 632 to 661 and the rulers of the United States from 1776 to 1941. This also means that if the principal victors of WW2 (i.e., western European monarchs and republics) and their new global policemen as of 1945 (i.e., the United States) do not wise up and stop to adopt colonial political assumptions to get their ways despite the resistance of others, it would not be possible for both to avoid their decline (decay) and new societies to start to use the universal rules they depend on to keep their dominant role to dominate the international order if the United Nations (the organization and UN member states) continue to be a den of thieves. That is, of course, if human nature has not changed, progress or evolution is relative, and history repeats itself.
