    Default WWIII Prediction

    If or when a World War III kicks off, who do think it will be against?

    If it's against the Middle East and the West, do you feel Bush and Blair are to blame?

    Will the Soviets side with the Muslim fanatics?

    Not only will the Soviets side with the Muslim fanatics, so will British and American liberals.

    If it ever happens, it would be against radical islam / terrorism / ISIS. I wouldn't blame Bush or Blair, I would blame the radicals/terrorists/ISIS.

    I honestly don't think Russian would publicly do so. Maybe some feeding of weapons here and there though. By the time something like this would ever happen, I would like to think that by then Russia would see that they eventually want them dead too, unless they convert to Islam, as I believe less than 10% of their population is Muslim.

    War on Terrorism
    Further information: List of wars and battles involving ISIL

    Some claim that the “War on Terrorism” is World War III, with the September 11 attacks having been the 'Pearl Harbor' that dragged the United States into a terrorism fight. The World War 3 remains in the realm of fiction for most of the civilian populations of the world.

    On 1 February 2015, Iraq's Prime Minister declared that the War on ISIL was effectively "World War III", due to ISIL's declaration of a Worldwide Caliphate, its aims to conquer the world, and its success in spreading the conflict to multiple countries outside of the Levant region. Speaking of ISIL's destruction of pre-Islamic sites in the region, Syria's head of antiquities, Maamoun Abdul Karim, stated that "this is the entire world's battle."

    Some might say we are experiencing the beginnings of our own WWIII here in America. Racial tensions are growing very quickly.

    As for the West v the Middle East, Jim said it right: I place the blame squarely on Islamist terrorists. And I'd add blame for the silence of the rest of the "peaceful" Muslims.

    The Russians are fighting alongside Assad in Syria to help defend the Syrian government against islamic fanatics that the west and other middle eastern countries funded and called 'rebels' when in reality they were muslims radicals a lot who are from Saudi Arabia.

    The US and other countries have shown ourselves to be willing to help them. But they need to speak up.

    When the US armed the 'rebels' who were basically different groups of radical jihadis most have now defected to ISIS. America is among the countries who fueled the fires and we are looking at the results.

    No. They are fighting alongside Assad to maintain their hegemony over the European natural gas market.

    Hmm. So the US is to blame for ISIS and other terrorist groups' hatred and jihadi impulses. Not the terrorists themselves. I'm getting the impression that our new Brit members are in the "Blame the evil US for the problems of the world" camp. Yes?

    I'm a radical now. Everyone has screwed up fighting ISIS and allowed them to grow too large now. I would nuke the fuckers. Yep, I already know the consequences, and I would still go forward with that plan. Right now all anyone is doing is picking off a few here and there, while they are growing daily, and killing more and more. Ok, and if not nuking, create more and annihilate them with MOAB's and other massive bombs. Destroy tons of them at a time, and scare the shit out of the others.

    When you stand close to a bees nest you might get stung but if you shake the bees nest you will be stung 100 times. Radical islam was already eating up the region but countries are using it to take down their enemies by inflaming tensions/providing weapons and support. When America is guilty it is guilty. Saudi Arabia funded the terrorists as well, so did Turkey to fight the kurds.
