Hello KJC, <<the war rages on now for ... days, weeks, months or years>>

... I am guessing years, as in practically speaking, almost endless, because the very complicated and combustible mixture of the whole region (from Afghanistan to India to Egypt, Yemen, and Indonesia) had just been shaken, stirred, and the catalyst triggered reaction has just started.

<<Let's guess as to how long it will take for J6P to boycott>>

... Globalization will be deformed:

<<Boycotts always seem to find a way to backfire on those who organize them, sort of like the laws of unintended consequences>>

... just like war.

<<My guess is ... The war will end, but unintended consequences, both from the war and from the boycotts, will continue to gain mass...>>

... Yup.

Chugs, Jay
