The democrats’ debate was quite refreshing, compared with the previous two debates by republican presidential aspirants. In the least, and by contrast, it was cordial and civil, and addressed many significant issues that I feel should be of concern to the majority of US citizens.
Environmental issues were touched upon, and the attitudes of the candidates were generally in line with progressive attitudes compared with those of denying republicans; thus in sympathy with the views expressed in my first book “Planning for Survival”.
The lopsided distribution of wealth, and the greed and abuses of many capitalist entities in the US was discussed, and Senator Sanders boldly proposed that a measure of socialism is needed to rectify matters; as I argued in my second book “For the People by the People”. In spite of the panic that the word “socialism” invokes in the minds of many American voters, I believe, and hope, that his expressed position would ultimately bolster, rather than compromise his candidacy.
Also, the gravity and detrimental consequences of the invasion of Iraq were covered. One of the main highlights of the debate was the exposure of the fact that Secretary Clinton is the only candidate among the five democratic aspirants who voted for initiating the war; clearly to her disadvantage.
In my third book “The Crisis of Islamism”, I identified three main causes of the current problems in the Middle East. They relate to: 1. the creation of the State of Israel, 2. repeated intrusions in the region by Imperial Capitalism -including the invasion of Iraq- and 3, the action of certain Arab leaders in the past, as well as at present.

The Invasion of Iraq was discussed, and the role of Arab leaders was alluded to. However, issues relating to US/Israeli relations -that I consider to be central to US and global security- were barely addressed in the debate!?
On the whole, the democrats’ debate seemed to reflect rational rather than aggressive impulses. I wish the party success in future elections.
Without delving into details, world leaders’ speeches at the UN’s seventieth anniversary also, on the whole, reflected somewhat moderated views. Perhaps, after all, there may be a chance for tychiformation to prevail sometime in the not too far future!?
