Can we expect World War III any time soon?

Question

Un ending and debatative war in Irag and the entire middle east.

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....where you go to hide, or how long you can survive. In a nuclear age like i said before, the only true enemy is war itself.

Answer 2

WWIII started when the Iranians took over the American Embassy in Tehran in 1979 and Carter
did nothing and it was on under the Clinton years and it was finalized on 9/11/01 8 months after
President George W. Bush took office. WWIV is next!!

Answer 3

May be...in 1938, few people knew a giant war was coming.

and in 1920, very very few knew a war bigger than the first would be following only 20 years later.

On the other hand, during nearly 50 years, we waited a soviet attack that never came so who know what will happen ?

Answer 4

No, president Obama continues to be the commander and chief (god that ought to grate on some conservatives ears like a team of N e gr o hooligans using with the aid of a church social with their Rap song blaring). yet anywho.. Congress ought to declare conflict on somebody like Iran - yet i think of part of the independents weariness of democrats that became into on demonstrate at present - is Obama's continuation and growth of the conflict in Afghanistan. Republican strategists comprehend this and because Republicans placed gaining and keeping capability above concept - they gained't attack Iran because of the fact it does not be a political benefit.

Answer 5

I think so. Just look at all the events taking place right now, Iraq is about to go up in flames, Iran keeps provoking the world with it's nuclear weapons program, North Korea has already tested such a bomb, the terrorist took over Gaza etc etc.

We'll just have to wait and see what happens.

Answer 6

We are already in War World 3 the liberal media is just to scared to admit it.

Answer 7

I believe world war 3 started a long time ago, they just haven't named it yet

Answer 8

you bet!! it will be an eye opener for quite a few people, the rules change! do you remember the L.A. riots? it could get that nasty all over, if so you might be protecting yourself from looters as well as terrorist.

Answer 9

Do you think that then maybe liberals would belive that we are really at war.

Answer 10
