Question:

What are the chances of World War 3?

by | earlier

I am quite concerned about the going on in georgia, with russia and america. Ive heard it been said that world war 3 is in sight? It may sound silly as i live in england, but am quite concerned as i have a 10 month old daughter who means everything to her. and living through a war is obviously something i never want her to experience. I have been getting bad feelings for a while now that something bad is going to happen. and be4 i thought it was daft and i was scared of being burgaled or something and now all this has been on the news its sent my mind into overdrive worrying over things. I know iam probably being silly. is there a chance me&my family will see a world war 3??

It most likely will not happen. It just seems like Russia was sending a message to Georgia...that message was "If you think you can walk all over us,(Russia), because of your ties with the west, (USA)you will feel the pain of ignorance" It just so happen to coincide with the Olympics so to not get so much media attention. I'm guessing the worst is over and hopefully now cooler heads will prevail.

Yes there are high chances of world war 3...with USA running after sucking blood of Iran, having already screwed Iraq...USA will soon run after Pakistan to s***w all pakistanis....USA has already screwed afghanistan...USA IS ON A s******g JOB and the days are not far when the entire world will s***w USA and its allies UK, FRANCE and Germany. There will be two teams....one team led by INDIA, RUSSIA, AND CHINA and the another team (which will be screwed tightly) led by USA, ENGLAND, GERMANY and France...the VICTORY WILL BE WITH INDIA, RUSSIA AND CHIINA....

Slim to none,

In my opinion tensions will rise a little bit more, but Russia will not continue what it's doing because many other nations are demanding them to stop, and they are simply outnumbered and it would be a really stupid move to provoke many nations.

World War 3 will not be fought for purely economic purpose. I think it will be started by USA and China, not by Russia and Georgia.

I think there is a chance that a world war will be fought in the future, but whoever that $^%%^ is that said India, Russia and China will be on one side is totally wrong. India will back the USA against Pakistan and Japan which has the 3rd largest military in the world and the leaders in world technology will lead a huge military against China. All the European nations will invade Russia. Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia and the Philippines will go to war against Indonesia. The USA, England and Canada will support Israel and invade Iran, Syria and all the Middle eastern countries. And don't think for one second that Africa and South and Central America will be free from war. Mexico and Brazil will lead a war against Argentina, Chile, Peru and Bolivia. In Africa, South Africa, Mozambique, Botswana, Tanzania and Democratic Republic of Congo will go to war against Zimbabwe, Zambia, Namibia and Angola. This is just a rough estimation of current world Alliances and can change at any moment for any reason.

Let's look at the big picture together.

Answer this : Who gain something or who had some profit from WW 3?

.. Imo we have only one answer for this question : no one

You and your family saw some browse wars at BBC, maybe some conflicts at border line's but that's all.

Unfortunately "small" and under control wars and after happens those conflicts are piece of our life's. Good for weapon sellers, some huge intercontinental companies and politicians .. not for us, people who work hard for own families, people who pay taxes, obey the national law's .. but no one ask our opinions.

except election times, If u don't wanna be a part of WW 3 think about it and gave vote to who talking about international trade - more education - global warming - g*y rights etc.

A politician who had that kind of motives can't interest defeat the enemies or love the own nuke's .. use your power, vote'em .. use your vote for peace

the war between Russia and Georgia is easing up. Any way, the world has suffered the hardship of war and nobody would go to war unless the were mental. I don't think there will be a world war 3.

World war 3 will be started by America,Israel and Europe working together to try and destroy Russia,Iran,North Korea,China,Pakistan.

Australia will dumbly support the USA and be destroyed by these superpower countries.

I don't think there's a likely chance but anything could be possible..I think the world is now better edicated to know what war will lead to so..

its pretty unlikely that a)world war 3 will be triggered by the georgia-russia conflict and

b)world war 3 will happen any time in the forseeable future

the russia-georgia conflict is pretty much over already, im fairly certain a truce has been/will soon be signed. Furthermore, I think nuclear weapons are such a deterrent that nobody would dare start a war between the superpowers.

It is perfectly normal to be concerned about all the situations you have mentioned. As mothers we want to always protect of children from any harm and we want them to grow up in a peaceful world and have a successful life. We as Americans have to trust that our Government will do the right thing and stay out of the conflict between Russia and Georgia, after all Georgia is not in NATO and we have no obligation to protect them. I believe things will die down for a little while but Russia wants to show that they are a super power just like America. I think Americans and our Government knows that we should never mess with Russia, we all know that MAD (Mutual Assured Destruction) has worked for a very long time. I don't think Russia or America wants a conflict. I think all we can do is pray and trust in MAD. Good luck to you and God Bless.

I would say the chances are pretty good...it's all a matter of WHEN!!

It might be tomorrow...it might not be for couple of hundred years.

I was sure the wolrd won't enter ww3 before and when Georgia and Russia agreed to peace couple of days ago I thought everything will be ok, but now I'm hesitating.

georgian president does not think that he did a bad thing by broking the peace and killing thousands of civilians in one night, a lot of georigans think the same, they just keep saying "we will return...", and the world is supporting him. Now US reinforcing him and provides with additional US troops.

So the crazy georgian president can start to bombard the peaceful civilian cities again.

The Russia won't be gentle to him this time and a lot of US troops will die too.

Russia and US never openly confronted each other, but they can now.

So they can start to exchange nukes - nobody will survive..
