Brit:Well in my opinion Huntington's thesis could be proven valid only if the people of the various nations are fed a lot of bigoted and politically motivated racist propaganda and misinformation about other nations and cultures.Then the clash or war is imeneant.
It's happening right now on almost every news channel outthere you can click on.

fatimah:I can understand how a country can strive to power and wealth such as control of territory or resources. And for that propaganda and playing to fears is needed, because there is no real winner in an ideological war alone.

the real war or clash going on is between the have and the have not.
