RAF to shrink to pre-1914 levels...

but the chances of getting into wars are not higher.

That remains to be seen. In the coming years the world population will grow fast. That and the fact that newly developping countries (China, India) are very rapidly increasing their consumption levels, increases the demand for natural resources. Competition for natural resources (not just oil) may lead to conflicts. And many countries which had old fashion style military forces in the past have updated to modern standards. All this may increase the risk of conflicts over resources which could lead to military activities.

That being why each country should spend money on developing other resources. So we have to depend less on oil and gas. For the rest i don't think any risk will increase...
World population will grow for some years, but don't forget this is mainly because we keep on living longer... Not so much, because we keep f(censored) like rabits, resulting in a lot of baby's.

Not in this part of the world, It's something COMPLETELY else in Africa, South America, India, China etc.

Indeed, we can expect a serious decrease in our population!
