After this the pendulum descended through wars in the middle East, Vietnam, Iraq and other places before swinging upward to liberate the nations of the Warsaw Pact and the Baltic States reaching a high point in 2004 as the EU and NATO integrated Eastern Europe. But dictators reacted as Freedom in the World declined year after year from 2005 through 2022 with the pendulum of history reaching its lowest point as Putin invaded Ukraine for wanting democracy and Trump wreaking havoc in the US, siding with autocrats everywhere and evading accountability for his many crimes. China threatens Taiwan, North Korea is a family business testing and selling nuclear weapons, and Iran continues to develop weapons grade nuclear materials threatening to wipe Israel from the map. Global Hunger is at an all time high with almost a billion people hungry and Putin shuts off shipments of food to Africa. July 2023 has been the hottest month on earth since temperatures have been accurately recorded.
Consequent to the persecution of dictators, environmental calamities, increasing economic inequalities and global hunger over 150 million people have no homes fueling uncontrollable mass migrations to Europe and America. Humanity reached our nadir in mid-July of 2023. Now the arc swings upward led by Ukrainian resilience.
