From what I've read, the time after the World Wars was an aberration and we are now returning to the norm.

This seems to be the case.

It takes a mass tragedy to unite people. Look at what happened to GWB's approval after 9/11!

I worry it will take another war or mass terror attack to get us out of this divide we are in.

If only I were Ozymandias planning a fake Alien attack on New York to bring everyone together...
