governments -wars to end world?

Question

Does any1 else think that the governments around the world will end up having a world war which will end up killing us all.
with all this talk about Iran and the nuclear weapons they have been teasting in the past - maybe its an excuse to test them out on us!!! I would neva trust those countries.

as in trusting countries i ment their governments - they may feel the same about us though.

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

Iran hasn't any nuclear weapons. If addressing nuclear weapons is a real issue, North Korea and Israel are much further along the track than Iran. Then factor oil into the equation and the answer starts becoming clear.

Answer 3

You might just have a point there.

There are way too many people in the world and half of them are living in poverty so they are unable to contribute to the profit margins of our capitalist masters. Getting rid of half the world's population would mean that we would not have to feed the poor and the surviving half would have a lot more money to spend. Also the cost of labour would plummet because we would have millions of POW's who we could work like slaves making even more profit for big business.

That would also explain why they are only enlisting kids from working class areas of America to fight in the Middle East and the rich kids get to stay at home and guard the money.

Nah wait a minute,ha ha ha, I must be smoking too much weed.... surely even our capitalist work you like a dog for a dollar an hour masters are not that evil......ARE THEY??? :)

hey i am positive that we will all get blown up. it is only a matter of time. 1961- cuban missle crisis was four hours away from blowing up the whole world. in teh world, there is enough nukes to destry the earth 12 times. and the link above shows what hte first hydrogen bomb did- and to tell the truth- it wasnt that big. we now have U2 boats. they are boats that attach nuclear warheads to the end. if launched- (they have never been tested)- they have enough power to sink an ENTIRE CONTINENT. it is crazy. and all because we have grudges. u better watch out for China- they gonna sneak somthing. any nuclear bomb detonated can knok the eatrh of its axis.

Answer 5

Some of us have lived with the threat of thermonuclear war for a very long time. It was called the Cold War. Don't worry honey, you'll get used to it...

Answer 6

as a born again Christian, I believe there will be a battle at the plains of Armageddon that will be the end of us all, if that's what you mean

Answer 7

Umm, sort of, I thought you and me would be the only survivors, though. If you're right, my beautiful dream is over.
