How do you think WW3 would happen?

[Undead stuff]

How do you think WW3 would go down ? Who would be fighting? Who would win? What would the aftermath be like? What would some notable parts of the war be? What would some countries do to help or fight the war? When would it happen? Please note this is not a funny make believe ww3 but a realistic one.

Somebody launches a nuke, than another country does, followed by another. Though I imagine that will bring them to a draw and result in the rest of the war being fought out by the remaining conventional forces.

Can you be more specific?

[Wamitoria]

It won't.

[Undead stuff]

It won't.

why

[Machtergreifung]

It won't.

why

MAD

[South Lorenya]

I don't think there will be a WWIII.

[Wamitoria]

It won't.

why

Globalized economic dependency.

[Jurgenty]

I have no idea how WW3 will be fought, but WW4 will be fought with bows and arrows ........

Like what country will attack who, where militaries will invade, and for what reason? No, nobody can. They hand you the BS answer, but they can't actually tell you how it will happen. Millions were convinced that in 1963 the world was going to end, in 1964, LBJ used the image of a bomb as a commercial. But it never happened did it? No nuke was lobbed.

So yeah, I don't know. Nobody does. And that's why I can't be more specific. I can pretend, like I'm sure some will a few posts later, that through their foreign policy "experience" (reading Wikipedia, a couple of IR books and maybe watching the news), but it would be pure speculation.

[Juristonia]

The French finally get fed up with being called surrender monkeys and start attacking everyone.

[Jalkil]

I dont think there will. Not with todays politics and situations. A WW3 would propably need to include India, China, Russia, USA and Great Britain/France/Germany to be counted as a Great war. Atleast one, maybe more, will fight the rest. Perhaps Brazil will be the South American representive in this war?
Just some random info to help others make their prophecies.

Sticks and stones is what Einstein said, not bows and arrows.

And get beat. In five weeks this time.

Globalized economic dependency.

That makes sense, but what about iran? I see it nuking israel in the near future.That would certainly start something.

[The Matthew Islands]

At the moment, the big contenders for starting something big, is not the US, Russia, or China. It would probably be Israel, which will then draw in the US. If it does involve Israel, I don't see it as being globally nuclear. I see it as possibly a nuclear exchange between Israel and Iran, then large conventional battle being fought by Israel's allies, in the aftermath of a nuclear exchange between Israel and Iran.

Israel has nukes, and Iran wants MAD to protect them.

How i see it happening

Causing a massive world wide argument over who exactly struck the deciding blow, leading to everyone nuking everyone.

I highly doubt that Israel or Iran would use nukes.

Ok i see what you are saying

[Delator]

Not sure, but it'll probably start with some damned foolish thing in the Balkans somewhere...

[Jello Biafra]

It would begin via a dispute over water in an arid region of the world and spread outward from there.
