Reason States have the right to wage war.

The world is a far more dangerous place in the 1st century of the new millennium than ever before. The slew of small wars, secessionist movements, insurgencies, and territorial disputes that have pockmarked international relations and unsettled countries at a fundamental level, are now topped by unimaginably terrifying acts of terrorism. Like turning fully laden passenger aircraft into guided missiles to ram skyscrapers.
The successor international system to the Cold War regime that is now emerging is characterized by fluid situations and cross-cutting national interests, in which uncertainty about the future is fuelled as much by well-meaning friends as known adversaries. In a system of nation states, that shows no sign of conforming to the millennial yearning for peace and brotherhood, and with the United Nations proving incapable of amicably resolving conflicts or keeping the peace, major countries are scrambling to make separate arrangements for their own defence. There is talk about the globalization of security. But all that has meant is the rationalization and the spread of traditional strategy fuelled by hope that because states have more power but less control, prudence will accrue.
As the strongest economic and military entity in the world, the United states of America has begun to betray imperial yearnings. The real trouble is, it seems to be persuaded that chasing absolute security is a far from chimerical exercise, even if this means withdrawing from international agreements and contemplating the use of advanced nuclear and coventional military weaponry against manifestly unequal adversaries. That the nuclear threshold is thus lowered does not seem to bother Washington. Predictably, this has occasioned feelings of relative insecurity in everybody else. Arbitrary and unilateral actions in pursuit of narrow national self-interest and justified by the doctrine of raisen d'etat (reason of state), naturally leads to other countries emphasizing nuclear weapons-use, or resorting to other means in an asymmetrical context, and to unobtrusive efforts at balancing the would-be universal hegemon.

Combines like the India-Russia-China axis are being mooted, Though without much conviction. European states apprehensive of becoming mere adjuncts of the US, are trying to stitch together 'global and comprehensive cooperation' with countries, like India, in the security field in the hope that congeries of such strong military groupings (like, for instance, Russia, France, China, and India) will extend their influence and moderate the American enthusiasm for compellance measures, adventurism and ready resort to force and, in a peaceable sort of way, countervail the us in the international system. Similar thinking is also motivating the Russian policy of building up India in the defence field, with an additional incentive that a militarily strong and confident India would distract China in Southern Asia and relieve Chinese pressure on the oil and other natural resources rich but demographically empty Russian siberia.

47. The greatest threat to global security today is from United States and Europe

(ii) Non-state actors and Nuclear weapons

(iii) Terrorism only and only only only

(A) Terrorists and nuclear Weapons United States and Europe Nuclear and Coventional weaponry Small arms and insurgencies
