Flashpoints - The Full Report

A troubled world in August of 2001

Far from a new world order and worldwide peace, the Fall of the Soviet Union and the cessation of the cold war has not lessened the otherwise "business as usual" practices among the human players on this planet.  As this report will show, there are plenty of hotspots begging to become the spark that could ignite another world war, or at minimum a major military campaign requiring alliances and vast movement of troops across oceans and continents.

The report contains a focus on the following countries clearly defined as flashpoints - major troublespots in the world today::

This report was inspired by the AFI Research staff's daily intelligence and reports on the hot spots around the world, as well as a series of reports generated last year-- the AP Wire's Flashpont Series -- which provided background information on some of the hottest spots going.  Our report adds the former territories of Yugoslavia and Indonesia to last year's AP list, as well as a new category of  nations we believe most likely to be added to the flashpoint list in the near future in a section called  "Boiling Cauldrons".  This list includes: The Full and Complete report  gives you the information necessary to understand the differences in borders, languages and cultures as well as the leaders that determine the historical background that plays a major part in the world's conflicts.

AFI Research releases are now one of the world's most widely read intelligence and conflict analysis news feeds
