Zbigniew Brzezinski giving the Council on Foreign Relations a presentation discussing world government and the mass global awakening that is taking place.

"For the first time in all of human history, mankind is politically awakened. That's a total new reality.  It has not been so for most of human history, until the last one hundred years. And in the course of the last one hundred years, the whole world has become politically awakened and no matter where you go, politics is a matter of social engagement, and most people know what is generally going on, generally going on in the world and are consciously aware of a global iniquities, inequalities, lack of respect and exploitation. Mankind is now politically awakened and stirring. The combination of the two, diversified global leadership, politically awakened masses makes a much more difficult context for any major power including currently, the leading world power, the United States."
