As much as I hate to say, WW3 is inevitable, fast-approaching, and necessary. A militant Islamic state like Iran won't be swayed by Bush's bullshit, and neither will Kim Jung the Illest. If our capitalist asses want to be safe we need to quit figuratively raping and fondling other foreign powers and just chill out. When a democratic state with nuclear weapons is ran by an economic system like ours, with a president that puts mentally challenged Texans to death...what world power wouldn't want to kill of us "yankees." Us "infidels." We were born to live and die and I think the next fifteen years are critical in maintaining world peace. We are already, right now, on a the brink of an international incident with Iran and North Korea, lets just get past these next two years of Bush and his lackeys, and vote for someone who can at least complete a full sentence.
I've got to agree with a lot of this. As long as the US keeps peddling it's "fix the world" bullshit and other countries keep peddling their "we are god's only army" bullshit, war is close to inevitable.
If you ask me, WWIII will come into existence when the Middle Eastern nations get over themselves and finally band together. They've got a common goal, but they've had some trouble allying themselves in the past because of some economic and military differences. If all of these "infidel" hating nations finally agree to wage their Jihad together, that's how war will begin. They'll declare this alliance, the terrorist attacks will increase, we'll do our whole bombing thing once again, and a global war begins. It will probably be North America and Europe versus the Middle East and their various African nations.
This will be a little like a guerilla war on a global scale: We've got an obvious advantage in things like economy, weaponry, and the fact that we generally have so many more countries. They, on the other hand, can cut off their our oil supply at any time, and already have sleeper cells planted all over the world. Plus, there's the whole issue of Muslim Pride: When we have nuclear weapons, we have to get into a complicated system of considerations and dealings before we could ever launch it. They, on the other hand, are fighting a religous war, and have the advantage of soldiers who don't give a shit about casualities, including themselves. If they get their hands on dangerous weaponry, they're not going to hold back.
That's my theory.
