Do you believe World War 3 is imminent?

[Freedom]

I'm not going to add much to this thread but if world war 3 was to break out then I am perfectly fine with some fucker pressing the big red button and wiping humanity off the face of the planet.

disgusting species we are, the planet would thrive without us.

If world war 3 wipes us out completely then I'm all for it.

The problem with that is, a nuclear war would also wipe out nearly all of the other life on earth. Maybe some deep ocean life would survive, but not much else.

It would take at least 50 million years for the biosphere (already severely damaged by human overpopulation) to recover, for new life forms to evolve to replace the current ones.

It has happened before and can happen again.

Anyway Russia are no match for NATO.

I've read where Mattis doesn't believe there was a chemical attack and also I've read where Theresa May doesn't believe a chemical attack happened and say what you will about President Trump he's been very cagey, very clever in how he has handled foreign policy he's rattled the saber a couple of times, he's even struck fast and hard before so other leaders know he's not fucking around. It's my belief that President Trump wants us out of Syria and the white hats in Syria want us to stay and help them....there is no "good side" of this war to be on so being on the side of "let's not even bother" is seeming like the best choice for OUR nation.


Assad sucks but he's Russia's boy, the guys he's fighting against are Al Qaeda and ISIS....they ain't our friends and if we arm them they'll still want to kill us so fuck them.

Have to think we've been there for quite some time now. Non conventional sides and alliances rotating constantly. To state the obvious, it's a shitty situation with no real answers and as I see it no clear definitive leadership. I truly hope Trump has positioned his administration to give clear experienced and free to speak truth to power. More importantly I hope he seeks and receives it as a leader not of a base or a talking point but the leader of this Republic. As of now he appears quite contradictory and needs to cease making this, or any military action, an act of popular opinion polls and winging it with feints and tough guy bs talk via grade school tweet fest. FFS turn off the cable networks and listen to men and women who have been to war and actual individuals brought in for that exact purpose. Everything I've seen on May indicates she fully believes Assad was behind it to the point of possibly acting without parliamentary consent. And that's the closest I'll go to pretending to know her Governments inner dealings. We need clarity and one firm voice in times of conflict and we are very much at that point. "Lets wait and see" does not instill confidence. Too many games being played by the ones in power on all fronts.

True as far as conventional weapons are concerned, but they do have a lot of very powerful nukes, more than enough to kill us all.

And a Russia-China alliance with conventional weapons is a match for NATO, in fact is probably stronger in the long run. We shouldn't underestimate the power of China, let's not forget the USA and Western Europe have lost their manufacturing capability.

Russia and China have been forming a military alliance. It's said, in the economist anyway, China doesn't have full trust in Russia but it's a convenient hedge against the US. China trying to shake off the petrol dollar is another anti western move

We should be moving to electric cars anyway.

Takes too much energy to produce and run those.....yes as opposed to a fossil fuel car.
