Re: Are we on the brink of WWIII ?

Is anyone seeing whats unfolding with Israel / Lebanon / Palestine ?

Wasn't Nostradamus's prediction of WWIII during 2002 ? What if he was off by 5 years?

Actually, I beleive we are have been involved in World War IV since 9-11. If you cound the Cold War as WWIII. The Cold War has to be considered a war.

Currently, we (the civilized world) find ourselves fighting a war with factions not affliated with governments (for the most part) who detest the civilized world especially western culture. Small events can be the tipping point for a huge conflict... Look at WWI.

We live in interesting times. To appease or bend to those animals who use terrorism as their main weapon is foolhardy. It is time that the civilized world puts a stop to this by doing some house cleaning.

If you found a rat living in a room in your house... Do you just close off the room and for get about it? Do you feed it an hope it does not reproduce and invade other parts of your home? Of do you kill it?

We are seeing a war of ideas and information/misinformation unfold in front of us. Nostradamus wrote in abstractions in his Quatrains... which is like abstract art, it allows the reader to attatch meaning. Sort of like the ink botter test used in psychology.

Just my views.

If history serves as a guide, I would not mess with Israel at all. They have to be the strongest power in that region, b/c their neighbors hate them. They are fighting for survival... kind of like cornering a bull.

BTW, for you mystics the Mayan Calendar ends in 2012... They have the most accurate calendar in history.

Navy SEALS have been on the ground in Iran of and on for 5 years. Light them up. Are we going to fight a war are we going to play patty cake with a man sitting on a granade with the pin pulled?

the problem is a little deeper than simply 2 armies meeting on a battle ground and going at it. Militants and Militant organizations use Geurilla warfare. Their soldiers use the cloaks of discretion and send suicide bombers across borders to create trouble. It's the very reason that peace doesn't prevail in Iraq and the same technique how Hamas / Hezbolla are supposedly executing their hidden agendas.

You could have Navy Seals sitting in the laps of expected militants, but until you don't know who the militants really are, you dont know who you're going to send the seals to war against.

oddly familiar situation eh kamal? aka vietnam. just don't exactly know who the enemy is or where they are.

Re: Are we on the brink of WWIII ?

Vietnam would still seem more in line with a war than what is going in Iraq / the rest of the Middle Eastern Region imo.

Re: Are we on the brink of WWIII ?

I'm just spurting out my opinion. you know. politics threads are for discussing opinions.

Re: Are we on the brink of WWIII ?

vietnam was a war between governments. sadly, the militants have made it a war between peoples, and even further dividing it into a flat out religious war where the minority is drawing the entire world down upon the few islamic havens left in the world.

its like me, kamal and pickle getting together and attacking things on a massive scale while the US leadership is vehemently against it. and in some instances, the US leadership giving us a nice home to hide in and money to buy more materials.

again, best wishes to my friends in isreal. hoping for the best.
