Yea true, war is usually only fought when it really has to be, I don't want to see a WWIII either. But you don't see countries going to war over something stupid, usually something big has to happen to trigger the war. The war will most likely be fought without the use of nuclear weapons in fear that they may consume the planet.

Im much more afraid of North Korea than India. We have been freinds with india, and they dont really start any problems. They are an extremly strong country and all, but North Korea is more of a problem.

Now, I really dont feel as if North Korea could start another WORLD WAR. They really have NO support, if any from smaller nations. I doubt China is even backing them up! They could easily start a war with us, or any other country they nuke.

I do think that we could cause a world war. We are being... dickish (as a country) to other countries.

1) I do agree with that, but it could agitate other nations to learn towards other nations IF there were every a World War.

2) Truthfully, this may be irrational, but I feel as if we should just drop a nuke in the smack dab in the middle of the middle east - all they do is cause problems. I really dont think any of those countries in that entire region have enough momentum to start a WORLD War.

3) Well, it was kind of predictable that they would start another War (im talking about WW2) after the shit we gave them after WW1. The European Nations literally DESTROYED Germany. Put them trillions into debt, and crushed them. It was quite predictable that they would one day retaliate.

I dont mean to be the devils advocate, but look at the Patriot Act by Bush - now that type of shit is scary. I really dont want people seraching my car if they feel im a terrorist.... jesus.

What's with this damn philosophy that 12th century feudal theocracies can't coexist with modern day democracy? These people have been like this for years, leave em' alone. Fence em' off, and let them kill each other off, if they're so terrible. It's better than our hands being red with their blood.

Spending a very recent 2 years of my life in South Korea within 60 miles of the border, I'm not too worried about North Korea. The idea that they have nukes is quite scarce if true at all. Back a few months ago, N. Korea tried to get some attention because they noticed they were not the center of the world anymore, so they claimed they had nukes.

Taco, you're slightly wrong about China. China was the major reason we still have two Koreas after the Korean war. If it wern't for China, they South Korean forces would have eliminated the scattered N. Korean forces.

If N. Korea decides to start a war, we all know who it is going to go to first, and it won't be the US. It's S. Korea of course. The highest ranking guys in N. Korea hate how succesful the S. Koreans have been in the post fighting years. If they were to start a war, before thier artillery shells hit the ground, there would be shells in the air going right back to those batteries. We know where almost everything is there, and our side of the DMZ is heavily fortified. True, we're starting to move the troops out of Seoul, to give them some more land to build on, but we still have a whole F-16 wing at Osan AFB that can be at the DMZ in 15 to 20 min. And one cannot forget the S. Korean forces. They have a special thing, when you turn 18, you can join the police force for two years, or you can join the military for 2 years. Manditory conscription for 2 years after the age of 18. Each and every S. Korean male is trained to fight, and can fight and supress N. Korea with no trouble.

The country I would be worried about is accually India. There are entirely too many sects and tribes throughout the state, and too many WMDs flowing between them. If one falls into the wrong hands, a sect could put a nuke wherever they want. It's become less of a deal of world powers, and more of a deal of gurilla and terrorist warfare. It's going to be those small groups that start the ball rolling for a big war.

Excuse me, mate, but I won't stand by in my democratic country while a fellow human gets opressed. I prefer havaing my hands full of blood than my head full of guilt. If they democratically elect a killer, alright, but, coming from a Country that survived a Dictatorship, I simply can't take it.

1.) The Russians don't have the right training or Equipment to fight a long term war. Look at Chechnya.

2.) Your thinking the Soviet Union. Only half people report at their bases in times of draft nowadays.

3.) Yes, but the Russians had the winter to their advantage. Hitler fell into the same trick as Napoleon.

This is what was meant to be posted.

As you obviously haven't the slightest clue as what you're talking about, it's futile arguing with you. Russia is currently in a monetary crisis, yes, but they still have an enormous army that is excellently trained. Not paid at all (which is why you commonly see AKs and USSR W.O.M.D. in the hands of "terrorists)

Yes, Russia had the advantage of a winter. However, the way they were equipped as compared to Hitler's army, was ridiculous. So, even with the advantage of Winter, an army a tenth the size of theirs, would not have succeeded. People laid on cannons to stop them from firing, for example. Either way, as I said, arguing is futule, so my opinion stands firm.

1.) Yeah. I'm stupid. How do I dare to diss the country whose's military is being kicked in the butt by a bunch of Islamic Fundamentalists in the Caucasus. Are they a power? Yes. But they are in no condition to be such a deadly threat.

2.) Yeah. Amazing. Back in that day, with the little equipment they had at the begginning of the war, it was a heroic effort that saved the Russians. I won't deny that.

Arguing is futile? Yes, I'm the moron here.

Alright, it doesn't take a genius to figure out the sarcasm. Who, in your opinion, would win an entire world "brawl?" If you say the US, then wouldn't that render your statement, "Yeah. I'm stupid. How do I dare to diss the country whose's military is being kicked in the butt by a bunch of Islamic Fundamentalists in the Caucasus. Are they a power? Yes. But they are in no condition to be such a deadly threat." false considering the fact that the United States just so happens to be having the same problem.
