Are we close to WW3?

@TheDisciplinarian Russia is no threat at all they can't even beat Ukraine

@smileylovesgaming you haven't been paying attention. Ukraine is in its third army and now Russia has decided to wage a real war. Russia's defensive strategy has worked brilliantly for Russia as Ukraine has exhausted its manpower and weapons Tring to gain a few sections of land.

@smileylovesgaming Very True
That said..they do have technology they are afraid to use (or waste ) on ukraine..
The danger is Not persay russia or china
Neither are likely capable of a True All out war

Yet together
They can be a bit of a problem

More Importantly
We are Not Properly prepared..
For an All out Sustained war on 2 fronts

Yet
Clearly...we would Prevail

@TheDisciplinarian who is this "we" you keep referring to?

@hippyjoe1955 we refrences..usa

@TheDisciplinarian the USA hasn't won a war in decades. I can't remember a war that it did win. It starts lots of wars then runs bravely away

@hippyjoe1955 never mind !!

@TheDisciplinarian Name one war that the US has won since the US civil war? The US was on the winning side of several but the US has not won a war since the 1800s.

@hippyjoe1955 u can go back to sleep..lol

@TheDisciplinarian I am challenging you to name a war that the US has won. It helped with the clean up operations in both world wars and hasn't won a war since. It has been a pain in the butt for civilized societies but it hasn't won any wars.

@hippyjoe1955 That's because this is a nation of quitters!

@hippyjoe1955 as i said..you can go back to sleep
You only seek arguing and possibly war

@hippyjoe1955 no..You are Not
Tell me then of Any other possible nation ( without its allies )
Who has the Might to Fight alone in a world war
( as stupid as that would be )
Sure as heck neither china or russia..not uk..not france..not germany

So..do go back to sleep and stop in trying to site/start an arguement

@TheDisciplinarian Name one war the US has won in your lifetime. The US only goes to war to help the military industrial complex make money. It never wins the war and its equipment is obsolete as it is based on the old British model of sea going ships. Those ships are now simply floating targets as Russia and likely China can sink them at will. Its top of the line fighter the f35 is a hangar queen that doesn't like rain. Its army is woke and injured by the vax and very understaffed at the moment. To top it off the US is broke. It is borrowing money from China to give to Ukraine at the moment. What happens when China says "NO"? I fully expect the US to start bringing home its troops as it can no longer pay them to live in Africa and Asia and Europe and South America.

@hippyjoe1955 Google says United States has won over 81 wars and only lost 10

@smileylovesgaming and you believe Google
.... why again? The fact that the US has started 315 wars since 1991 should give you a clue.

@hippyjoe1955 so hippyjoe... do tell...where do u live

@hippyjoe1955 and where pretell do u live

@TheDisciplinarian in western Canada. My ancestors were American. My wife's ancestors were American. I do keep up with world events. America has been the instigator of too many wars. It needs to smarten up and stop pretending it is a force for good. It is acting evil at the moment.

@hippyjoe1955 u know of course
In time of wars...who helps out canada the Most

So i Fail to Understand
Your Trashing the Military that Helps canadians

Oh..
Ever hear of N.O.R.A.D.

@TheDisciplinarian very familiar with it. You probably are not. It is not offensive. It is purely defensive. NORAD doesn't launch airplanes to attack other nations it tracks and sends aircraft to intercept unfriendly aircraft. I have known pilots who flew from Cold Lake to intercept Russian bombers entering NORAD defended airspace. I have seen the radar center in Montana that keeps track of all the aircraft in the air from Mexico to the north pole and from the prime meridian west.

@hippyjoe1955 it does Considerably more then that
Though..it is a defensive facility
And i Highly doubt you know anywhere as much as i about norad..let alone more..lol

@TheDisciplinarian I was involved with it. I was an exchange officer that spent time in the USAF regarding NORAD.

@hippyjoe1955 Cool
