World War III, when?
 

So when you think it will start?
Who will start it and why?
I think it could happen in 20 years or so.
Started by: USA
Why: China takes over europe

Where have you been? It's happening right now.

:1orglaugh lol

Yeah. Those chinese, what an aggressive nation. :1orglaugh

I hope soon, so we can have some cool movies and games about it. :Graucho

That actually makes alot of sense...

I remember reading an article about how people laughed that the japanese would never attack america.

world war 4 is gonna be even better. genetically mutated survivors battling it out caveman style with clubs and rocks.

I can almost see a civil war coming just as fast as a WW here in the states.

Whaha nice one :1orglaugh

WWIII has already happened. It was called the "Cold War".

No. It was called the "Cold War" not WWIII.

Every country was involved in the Cold War. Which would make it in fact a "World" war. The title of it makes no difference, it was the "World's" "Third" war.

But still there was no "real" war with tanks and stuff :glugglug

But it has not been recorded by historians as World War 3. It is known as the cold war. If another world war indeed breaks out I am sure it will be called WW3

Sometime in the next 4 years if bush is re-elected :(

I think history will look back at this as the beginning as well....

esp if Bush gets another 4 years to get pre-emptive on other countries...

Ummm, the cold war wasn't a war.

civil war in our countries now?


not possible..too much decadence, the average person over 30 has to grunt ot sit up

Some of you may want to read "Winn Schwartau's: Information Warefare". He was in charge of National Security and worked closely with the FBI and CIA for some 20+ years. In his book, he labels the "Cold War" as WWIII. I tend to agree.

History books and facts don't always mesh well together. Be it as it may, the label of the Cold War has no bearing on it. I was just pointing something out that is possibly a historical error.

let me check that with Nostradamus :helpme

I can't see any "real" World War happening in the next years.

polish_aristocrat, expert in international relations :)

Cold "War" ??
:helpme

I predict that Europe will allow itself to be hijacked by Islamic extremists, and the war will be USA and Great Britain against the United Islamic European States.

At that same time, the Chinese and North Koreans will see their chance to make the landgrabs that they are looking over. The Chinese will start with Taiwan, and then may move as far south as Australia, who will fight back, but (no offence to Aussies, they just have a VERY small military), will be overwhelmed in about 3 days. They won't really bother will Malaysia and Micronesia.....they are already over crowded.....but would probably also be interested in Brunei...for the oil.

Should be an "interesting" period of history, huh?

I know, sounds a lot like WWII, but then the Geographic land arches don't change.

Just a thought....:2 cents:

Pornweaver: You're obviously pretty wrong. Just pretend you didn't say anything.

How about this... Do some research before you post your dribble:
http://www.cnn.com/2003/US/04/03/spr...sey.world.war/

When the war happens (which will 99% for sure be in our lifetimes) we will see what they really call it. As far as the "world" is concerned (America isn't the whole world buddy) WW3 has yet to happen.

I saw "World War III" on the history channel last week-end... they were considering it as the war on terror... on going.

I think we should consider the war on cancer as WWIII.

these threads make me laugh out loud every time there started:1orglaugh

Likely scenarios to spark the next major war.

1. Iran sends a missle into Israel. Israel retaliates with a nuke.

2. NK invades SK.

3. China invades Tawain.

hope never!!!!!!

This was actualy the best response yet in this thread.

once Iran and North Korea finish their nuclear programs...
it ll be middle-east/Asia vs. USA/Isreal with europe passing resolutions every day tryng to stop the war.


the anti-american sentiment has never been bigger in the world, and sad part is, it is only increasing..

looks like costa rica ll be becoming my home personally

later

It will start on November 8th at 3:30 am Central Mountain Time.

I have inside info.

the next WW after WW3 will be done again with swords and bows ..

:)

The 3rd WW will end up in a disaster so that everythin's gonna be destructed ... thats why the next war will be done with sowrds and other primitve weapons ...

Yea, you don't know it, but that chow mein you had for lunch..............can you say anthrax?

I think 3, then 1 are the most likely...in that order...

isn't there a bookie service online that allows placing those bets....

thought I'd read a wired article on that quite a few months ago...

Heh, Winn Schwartau...

Winn was never in charge of national security unless that was the name of a Nashville band he was managing while he was in the record business.

When he wrote that book, the term information warfare was still considered sensitive and many at the C3I wing of the Pentagon were wondering how he got so much information on the subject, amazing what is available via open sources. :1orglaugh

The war on terrorism is now the new World War III, with Russia and Australia joining in, the late Marshall McLuhan wrote "World War III will be a global information war with no division between civilian and military participation."

One only has to look on TV to see how true it is today. :(

Fuckin' soon if Bush is re-elected !

Not really, no...
