Outside View: Three horsemen of the new apocalypse - UPI.com: "WASHINGTON, March 2 (UPI) -- What a world! Much of North Africa remains roiled with mass protests against autocratic or crazed leaders. One predictable result has been skyrocketing oil prices with potentially adverse consequences for recovering economies. And, in the United States, a possible shutdown of government looms because America's two political parties prefer to indulge in a game of 'chicken' a la Washington not Kiev.
These events have been triggered by three, not four, horsemen of a future apocalypse that may be closer than we think. These horsemen arise from the question of what are the greatest dangers and challenges facing most countries. The answers aren't global climate change, terrorism, natural or man-made disasters and economic crises however much impact each can have."
