NP | ZK translation: a self-willed inferno

[Becky Lindroos]

“Self-willed” in that context would mean something like “self-determined’ or “self-chosen.”    It would mean we brought the inferno on ourselves - plural - because he’s talking about the society of nations.   

Kind of like climate change is going to culminate in a "self-willed" catastrophe.

And are we counting the days before advanced nations, or not so advanced, begin to deploy the most hellish weapons? Isn’t it inevitable? All the secret nestings in various parts of the world.
