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.

There will be no more conventional war. The West will be hit by islamic terrorists, and will respond by putting a stream of predators in the air looking to assasinate anyone identified as an islamic extremist. This will go on for centuries.

I don't think it would be nuclear, and I imagine it would be everyone just about for themselves. You would probably see France and Germany together, maybe Italy with them as well, though it's hard to tell. The U.S., Britain, and Australia, maybe with Israel. The arab nations would all be in league. China would stand by themselves, as would India. The S. Koreans, Japan, and Indonesia would probably all stand together with other smaller countries either remaining neutral or trying to join an alliance that would best promote themselves. S. America would probably not get involved, though there is no telling about them.

Not really a direct answer to the question but read the Hopi Indian Prophecy...you will be enlightened and probably shocked at what you find. My personal belief? The next WW will be "man against nature" which will involve "man against himself"..we have already exhausted "man against man" for it has been proven futile by all but the U.S. and a few radicals.

If their is a third world war, it will most likely be nuclear and there would be no point in taking sides cause if we dont get incinerated in the thousnads of nuclear explosions, then we will al glow in the dark.
