When will World War 111 start

[Moonbeam]

There are any number of possibilities I could imagine. It would start with India and Pakistan or India and China or the US and China or the US against the Arab world.

Where do you think it will start or do you think it will? Could we outgrow war as a means to an end.

US vs US could start a world war.

 

[nageov3t]

with globalization like it is, I don't really see it happening. hope I'm right.

 

[IronWing]

It will arise out of issues unresolved in WW110.

I don't know where or when, but I would bet money that USA will be the provoker. They have a recent history of unilateral military action and invasion like no one else in this epoch. Their history has shown a willingness to use weapons of mass destruction and a tendency to lash out and overreact on the wrong targets. The American government scares me like no other right now.

I'm expecting a long trend of regional conflicts as greater powers 'influence' weaker powers and compete for regional power.

As some nations' economic power grows and they want to expand their sphere of ifluence, there can be conflicts.

One problem the US faces is that our most lasting advantage over other nations may be our military advantage, and we may come (continue) to rely on it to protect our position.

It's actually somewhat surprising how these have tapered off since the days of Reagan, perhaps in part because of the Iraq wars and Afghanistan.

There is no one to challenge the US right now. Nobody. That said, China and India are on their way up, but due to their proximity I would suggest that India will take over due to their government and the will of their people. That said, China is more unified than India is in terms of culture and religion.

I'll say it will be either China or India vs. the US. Potentially Asia would align itself vs. North America, and if that happens, God help us all. Perhaps Europe will survive, but chances are they will go down with us and all that will be left is Africa. :Q

Take what this man says seriously. He doesn't speak often, but when he does, you can bet its worth reading!

I'd rather focus on ending the wars going on now rather than worrying about WW3.

I believe a World War will start when the oil runs out..... Nothing else will push it until then....

 

[Schadenfroh]

Hopefully The AnandTech Militia's invasion of Nigeria will not escalate into a global conflict.

That being said, I think WW 111 is far off, considering we have yet to go through 3.

Does World War 111 have anything to do with winnar111?

Sooo a 100 years then? I think Obama should consider creating a WW3 Czar. More czars! Must have more czars! Not enough of them!

if the last half of what you said was true, we wouldn't be bogged down in Iraq right now. we'd have a California-sized plain of glass in the middle east.

When one or more of the US, EU, China, or Russia runs out of oil. Then we fight.

Actually I did answer it. The OP asked "When will WWW111 start?" I replied 12/21/12

Even while drunk I'm twice more coherent more than half of the peeps on P&N. Or something like that..

And now I'm only 7433 posts behind you.

What would be the catalyst to cause WWW 111 to happen in 12/21/12?

You shouldn't post in political threads while drunk. People might think you're a Republican.

This, tbh.

 

[LunarRay]

Former Israeli Amb. Dore Gold spoke to the Heritage Foundation recently and it was captured on C-Span. He spoke mainly to Iran and Nuclear Weapon Capability. He indicated that of the known stockpile of uranium Iran could distill two bombs. He indicated that aside from all the obvious factors someone would have to keep that from happening. He don't think the US would do more than sanctions but left unsaid what Israel might do.

I think WW3 will start by Iran activity and the cause will be Israeli self preservation attempts. IOW Israel hits Iran.

Times article on the issue

Add up those numbers. Just the sheer, uncanny occurrences of the number 3 has me convinced!

Yes, my original post was in jest but you fed me some troll food and I couldn't resist.. especially when I have the munchies.
