Iran is really ticked



Israel will deal with Iran before they get close enough to a nuclear bomb. Conventional fight, US would destroy the entire Iranian military capability within a week or 2 at most, barring Russia coming to Iran's defense. But Trump is actively trying to build a good relationship with Putin, so Russia getting involved against the US militarily would be highly unlikely.

Civil war in the US is more likely than any WW3 thanks to all these liberal anarchist groups rioting and destroying shite because they're still melting over the election

When we think of world wars, we think about the images from WW1 & WW2. Planes dropping bombs, tanks, soldiers on the ground going to head to head battle. That is something I doubt we ever see again.

With a global market, is there any reason that would be in the best interest of any super power country to go to war with another?

Of course, while I keep up with current events and international relations, I don't know if there are any relationships between countries that could possibly result in any type of international war. But I think having nuclear weapons and other advanced weapons actually make the world safer because no one wants to create an environment where using these weapons would be more likely.

It's a world economy. The major powers rely so much on each other for economic reasons it'd be economic suicide to start WW3.



The foreign policy experts said the same exact things regarding a war between the major powers in the years running up to WWI and cited the same exact reason you have here.

The only time War will become unthinkable is when the human population on the planet drops below the number two.

Are you saying Trump would be less likely to get us into a war than Obama?



And before anyone accuses me of being a "liberal", just a reminder.. I consider myself "independent". I am a registered republican so from a technical standpoint I consider myself a "moderate republican" so I am not saying this because I was a die hard Obama fan or anything (like every other president, he wasn't perfect. I would consider him to be an average president).

We are very luck Obama didn't stumble and fumble us into WWIII. Seriously, our foreign policy during his time as POTUS was the biggest disaster of the the past 100+ years. He was a damn fool and had equally stupid fools as Secretary of State.

How do you decide sides. It's not like you have regions that are opposed. Conservatives are spread out all over the place, liberals are all in the cities.

I don't think you understand what world War means.

A conflict contained in Europe that is over before we get involved is not a world war
