Are you expecting World War III in this decade? If yes, how will it start?

By @ABCDEF7
It'll be a decade before anybody can afford a war.

I've heard every year of my life that World War III is going to happen soon. Same with Armageddon and any other end-of-the-world scenarios. 47 years in, and not yet. I'm not going to worry about it until it actually happens.

I am more anticipating civil war. As with civil wars everywhere, it will start when the military is told by upper command to shoot Americans who are defying certain government orders.

@CompTrain82 I never thought that a Civil War was possible any longer in the USA but now I think it unlikely but very possible to at least some degree.

In my life time perhaps. The world is changing especially fast, we see the growth of china and the rise of developing countries.

Whenever there a major change in the world order there's friction.

people have been "predicting" ww3 for decades.

In actuality, it's the people who preach peace and give lectures about saving the world that are most likely to start one...

Yes..

The problem is there are so many different places in the world it could start..

When I was 10, (back in 1996) I was expecting World War 3 to happen in the year 2000.

Might start in the nbhd I live in tbh

No, I think it's unlikely.

Oh knowing humans it’ll be something plebeian.

How about whether tomatoes should finally be recognised as a fruit and take their. ‘rightful place’ as a standard ingredient for a fruit salad ?
Or

Was it [i]really[/i] necessary to repeat every ➖ episode of Friends...again, five minutes after it ended ?

It will begin and end with exchanges of thermonuclear ICBM's both land and submarine based.Those who survive the initial blasts and aftermath will envy the dead as they face a certain and horrible death from radiation sickness.Any questions?
Not anymore, I’m not. I wish I could be as certain about a second [b]civil war[/b], though. 🙁

Beavis and Butthead are gonna do the whole world. They’re gonna accidentally break into a military base and launch the nukes on accident.
CompTrain82 · 41-45, M
@HermannFegelein They might drone Russia or some other country with nukes who then retaliate.

@CompTrain82 😆 Beavis and Butthead are dangerous because they’re so unpredictable. They could probably sneak into Area 51 if they thought it was an Amusement park or something.

This world today is hesitant to start overt hundreds of thousands of soldiers boots on the ground wars because warfare has changed.

More nations than ever have nuclear capabilities, chemical capabilities, viral warfare and highly effective solitary terroristic kamikaze style actions of war are common now in relatively safe civilian areas.

We are always at war. At this very moment many countries including the USA have soldiers engaged in war.
Will it ever escalate again to the level of WW2 numbers of nations fighting? Maybe. Probably but with each generation of increased technology the rules and nature of war change and the carnage increases.
Boots on the ground in great numbers are no longer needed in the same way in many areas of the world.

Maybe in a Marvel film! Or some other film, not in real life.

Not expecting that until late 2030s at earliest.

War against Viruses Corona Viruses I expect more of the same.
