WWIII?

Started by vaya_the_elf4 pages

I don't get why everyone says if we have WW3 it will be the last, and so on.

How is everyone so sure?

I mean the world did not end with the other two.

How many country's had enough nukes to blow up the world in the other two again?

Very true.

The question is would they use them?

Thats a hard one to tell, ussually country's won't want to use them right away.. At least not from what we have seen so far, but look at it like this, lets say the US invades Russia.. Russia is almost defeated it military stands no chance anymore. The Russians can then very easily decide to at least take as many Americans as they can with them to the grave, a 100 nukes later and the US Canada and most of Europe is gone with ease.... Launch all of them and most of the western world will be completly eredicated, then there are the nukes flying the other way. China, Mongolia, Japan Korea all gone...

A desperate man does crazy things.

Religious fanaticism would probably the instigating factor...

All it takes is one psychotic person to fire one off and we have panic.

World war is kicking off all over, one country wants to be a ringleader or is feeling left out, she shouts out she has nukes and will use them. Everybody else gets their's out for 'defence' so at this point we have alot of countries with weapons ready to launch, sombody lets one go and we have panic, "who the **** set that off, fire back" so we have shit popping off all over the globe and im just tring to eat my McChicken Sandwhich, but im gonna get melted away. But its ok, because at least if i die in a nuclear attack my last happy thought will be that half the world went down with me.

Guess the only way to know for sure is to wait, and see.

Who knows. Maybe it won't happen in our life time anyways

Maybe it will, maybe it won't. No point in worrying about it, if it happens we are all dead anyways.

if it's big enough to start a WW, it big enough to make some nuts use their nukes, if one side use it the other will too.
think about it, if hitler had it, he would have used it. if Japan had it, they wouldn't have surrendered after hiroshima, and we wouldn't be discussing this.

If i ever become a world leader nuclear war will happen.

You think bush is bad, i would totally emerge and kick total ass all over that axis of exil, which will include every country other than my own....and those who pay me huge tributes of gold and young women.

I never said I was trying to, merely identifying with the opinion of a pacifist.

Okay thats your choice, I don't agree with him however. Peace would be nice in a perfect society in one like ours we need war.

How exactly is war benificiary to our society?

War-time spirit. War-time community closeness.

Its like the world cup, but so much better.

Think of all the mayor scientific achievements we have made in the last well 5000 years... Then name one of those that wasn't created because of war.

Ever since Egypt society has developed from living in huts to building city's because of war. We even got the huts because of war. We got land because of war, culture because of war. Nuclear power because of war, highways becuase of war, airplanes because of wars, big ships because of wars. Most of our medical science is all based on what was developed in wars.

Most of what is invented is invented in wars and developed on further later on, often for the purpose of new wars. Wars have made us what we are today. Besides we humans could not live in peace, we would go insane. Maybe we could manage without wars, but country's would fall to fast and to easily governments would die faster then ever before. And even if there was peace we should fight as normal humans against other humans because we would want to prove we are better.

War is a necessary thing for a nation to prove itself with, just like fighting is for a normal human being.

Yeah but then what about the people who are against said war, remember the 60s?

Fishy, when we get rid of war man could just prove himself with how many women he's slept with, so without war, we still remain sane, and sexually active.
