U.S. Mired in Iraq — China Developing Super Weapons By Lev Navrozov
The title of Oswald Spengler’s book, which he intended to publish in 1913, but published only after World War I, has been translated into English as "The Decline of the West." The German title is "Der Untergang des Abendlandes," and the word Untergang means in English “sinking,” “self-destruction,” “ruin,” “fall” of the Abendlandes, the West.
According to Spengler, a civilization such as the post-Roman West, or its one country, Germany, is viable as long as genius comes forth and thrives therein. Otherwise its overall mediocrity, and hence der Untergang, ensues.
