The alternative to globalism is the endless wars that the human race suffered for thousands of years.

Its incredibly naive to think that the problem is one of government and not human nature. An infinitely powerful central government might mean an end to wars, but it would also mean an infinitely corrupt, authoritarian world. To avoid major conflicts we should move towards decentralizing power, rather than the opposite.
