One way to predict the future is to look at people with a lot of money on the line. The cost of war insurance for ships transitting the Red Sea is currently about 0.5%, but has recently doubled.

David Graeber, while visiting Palestine, heard about stories of Israeli intelligence spiking the tea of Palestinian women in hair salons. Then they took the women, undressed them, and took nude photos of them to use for blackmail. This was confirmed to be true by former agents.
In 2015 the North net appropriated from the South 12 billion tons of embodied raw material equivalents, 822 million hectares of embodied land, 21 exajoules of embodied energy, and 188 million person-years of embodied labour, worth $10.8 trillion in Northern prices – enough to end extreme poverty 70 times over.
The South’s losses outstrip their aid receipts by a factor of 30 and unequal exchange is a major driver of underdevelopment and global inequality.
