With itself? Wouldn't that be more like a Civil War II?

Will we have it??? I think maybe you're asking will we start it, but that just speculation. Anyway, it could be 28 minutes from now or 280 years from now. When the superpowers square off against each other in two camps, then come back and we'll talk apacolypse.
Until then, just think regional conflicts, wars between rump states, proxy wars and brinksmanship. If you recall the Yom Kippur War in 1973, a coalition of Arab States (Egypt, Syria and Jordan) were soundly defeated by the Israelis. That was a worse situation than the current conflict and it didn't raise a blip on the world war radar (not that it didn't have the potential to spark a global war).
The next World War will involve a nuclear exchange, how could it not. 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 when is the apacolypse, 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.
Our biggest risk is an accidental launch of nukes by one of the nuclear powers. ...especially Russia, with their aging command & control systems and aging early warning systems.

There will be another world war. I believe the Holy Bible to be true and withot out error. 2 Timothy 3:16 tells us that the word of God is of His inspiration. If this is true we can only believe that since God cannot sin He also cannot lie.
Now if we take this on faith we can see in the New Testament book of the Revelation that there will be a time when the nations converge to do battle. It appears to be in the middle east.
I do not know if this will be the third world war but I do know it will be the last. It is some time referred to as armageddon. You can look at this in the book of Revelation, chapter 16 and around verse 16.
There is only one assurance of life in this world, it will end. But there is also an assurance of hope. The New Testament Book of Acts in chapter 2 and verse 21 tells us that whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. The Lord Jesus is the hope of living eternally.

We should talk about peace. Now circumstances are quite different. Present Army action is against the groups who want to destabilize the situation in their country. United States is only super power. It is expected that gradually situation will normalize. There is no chance of any World War as USA is receiving support from most of the countries of the world in its fight against terrorism.

If, when, WW-III happens nobody will win. If the nukes themselves don't get ya, the fallout will.
