Unfortunately, WWIII will be global suicide, therefore in answer to your question, as long as there's rational superpowers who believe in MAD, there will be no WW3. By definition, the next world war wil be nuclear, how could it not. In a nuclear war there will be no winner. In a nuclear world, the only true enemy is war itself.
The next World War will involve a nuclear exchange, how could it not if both sides believe no price for victory will be too high. In the first 30 minutes, nearly a billion people will have been vaporised, mostly in the US, Russia, Europe, China and Japan. Another 1.5 billion will die shortly thereafter from radiation poisoning. The northern hemisphere will be plunged into prolonged agony and barbarity.
Eventually the nuclear winter will spread to the southern hemisphere and all plant life will die. You ask what country would be victorious, you are asking when will we commit global suicide. My answer is it won't happen soon because the larger superpowers are more rational than the rump states in the middle east.
While we hear talk of a nuclear-Iran or a confrontation with NorKor, little is said about the 2 bulls in the glass shop. The arsenals of Russia and the US are enough to destroy a million Hiroshimas. But there are fewer than 3000 cities on the Earth with populations of 100,000 or more. You cannot find anything like a million Hiroshimas to obliterate. Prime military and industrial targets that are far from cities are comparatively rare. Our biggest threat is from an accidental launch by the Russians.
At the point of global suicide, it doesn't matter who is on what side.... In a nuclear age like i said before, the only true enemy is war itself.

Yes. In fact it is going on right now. In late March of this year, the pirates launched their insurgency against the oppressive ninja government. the ninjas immediately retaliated with what is known within their legion as 'operation shuriken'. After the pirate forces were decimated, the leader of the insurgency, captain blacbeard the fifth, started what is now known as the Battle of the intersection of 54th and Lakeside, the first ever battle to not only be held in a Denny's parking lot, but also have casualty rates ranking in the thousands. The war has recently moved worldwide, as members of both the pirate and ninja factions joined the brawl.A week ago, however, a recent attack that no one had expected had come - a surprise assault from the aliens of space quadrant 5.

Haha, many religions say so. If you'd like to know read up on your prophecies such as, Nostradamus, the Bible, and the Koran. That's the religious side to it. If you'd rather take a more logical approach, watch the news. Or there are many Internet sights claiming to have great evidence of WW3. (Either prophetical or political)

But, no one really knows. (depending on how you believe.)

I don't know what we will call it. The first two World Wars were fought to End all War. The next will be fought to End The World. We may never even get a chance to name it. Wars have been never ending all through time. We are just getting better/worse at it.

I have news for you - we're IN it.
The history books are being written every day.
Remember - during World Wars 1 and 2 - they didn't call them that - they were just "big wars". The names came after - given by historians.
As to what will happen? I like Einstein's assesment: After the second world war, he was asked what kind of weapons would be used in the third world war.
Einstein said "I don't know . . . but I know what kind will be used in the Fourth world war . . . ..
Sticks and stones"

America still has the most poweful Military on the planet, in fact we're the only super power left on the planet today. I don't think we're going to be seeing any "Mass Muslim conversion" because, people, lets be realistic here. Can a collection of arab armies prepare to march on powers such as the EU? or the USA? We've seen what air power can do to an un-prepared enemy in the Arab-Isreali wars. We would attain control of the skies very quickly, with things such as the F-A-22 Raptor. Can arab armies be transported across the atlantic ocean? No, its impossible for any country to invade the US Mainland with the USN guarding our coastline.
But in a nuclear war......everyone is going to lose.

WW3 is being fought right now alright and we're about 1/2 way through it.
Read 'the true centuries' that will explain it.

Sorry mates, but this aint no war right now, you see it takes an act of congress to start a war, and well, Iraq is a police action, along with Afghanistan.
WWIII will begin when somebody pushes N. Korea to the edge and forces it to attack, that is when WWIII will begin.
And like another mate said, WWIV will be fought with sticks and stones

Got news for you - it's happening right now. Iraq is the prelude to the 'official' war much like the Spanish Civil War and the rape of Manchuria were the prelude to WWII. Only problem is, the American people have lost the will to fight and there's nobody to come to *our* rescue. Better start studying your Koran now, because barring a miracle conversion is your only hope of survival.
