WW3 Imminent, or are we already there?

[Shaazzyam]

so you say that it isn't region specific, but I just gave an example of how long something like this has been in that specific region

I bet if you were to ask the vast majority of people on both sides of the fence, they would say they wish they could just get on with their lives in peace.

Too bad Israel's government is a joke.

My point IS, assassins are few ARMIES are many. Assassins usually don't involve innocent civilians, where as armies DO. Again look at the current conflict in Israel.

I know what your point is but on the same token it's just very difficult to assassinate someone of huge significance

Without a doubt, i mean who wants to live in that hell. Sadly thats just not the way things are turning out right now

 

[A F0xy Grampa]

My point exactly! Why do we bother helping these fools who just want to kill us and others? It's a waist of resources and human lives IMO.

Because war and slavery have both made America powerful, slavery is illegal now, so you still have the option of war.

FTFY

We could ask the Israeli goverment.

Or we could just pull a @A F0xy Grampa and blame whole countries, like Britain, for giving the Jews someone else's land when they had absolutely no right to.

Idk which one is more constructive?

Would love to read the whole thread, but I think it's already at 200+ posts. On the topic of war, I don't think any of the bigger countries are crazy enough to start a direct conflict with the U.S. I'm leaving conspiracy theories about weaponry not known to the public out of this, but we (the U.S.) could literally blow any country off the map. Like, no more anything Caesar salting Carthage style. Having said that, North Korea is exactly the kind of crazy to kick off something like a WWIII. Trade sanctions Iran, Cuba, and (not sure where else, forgive me) had an effect: the impacted countries relaxed on some of the more extreme, blow you up attitudes (mostly referring to Iran). Korea? Nope. I'm more concerned with them (also aiming at an internship to South Korea, bit of a danger junkie).

About the Gaza\Israel thing, is it horrible? Yes (last I heard, like 700+ killed Gaza side, 30+ Israel numbers are maybe a weak old). Should we stop it? Yes. Should we all blow ourselves up over 2 (and more outside of this big conflict) tiny countries full of religious crazies? No so sure (phrasing is biased there).

And on Russia\Ukraine, did anyone besides the U.S. actually do or say anything? Legitimate question, didn't really follow much after the capital was on fire

noone lieks the u.s. because look at our fucking political process jesus christ. and our ipads and fuckign other stupid shit liek that. atleast people from great britain have personalities... but i'm usually prettier than them.

I think the technology argument can be made for other countries outside of the U.S. I've been bitching about people staring at their phones for years now. No one cares about human interaction anymore. It's something this generation lacks. I was at a restaurant the other day and the table beside mine was full of teenagers and all of them were staring/playing with their phones. Hardly any words were said. Wanna see a real life zombie? Walk outside.

Back when I had a girlfriend , we saw this shit all the time. We could play spot the other couples at the restaurant not talking to each other and that shouldn't be a thing

Dammit a lot of talk about my country here in this thread. Gotta read all the posts now...

Off the top of my head, after 10 + years, casualties on Israel side is 28. Maybe a thousand Palestinian deaths . I hope Obama says something about it finally.

If you want to shoot them an e-mail then by all means do so no one's gonna stop you

 

[TaffyMeat]

WWIII will be between Islamic religious terrorists created by the C.I.A. Read Albert Pike.

 

[TotteryManx]

WW3 may not happen like ever but equally dumb stuff happens everyday in the world but most don't want to notice.

Also you can't defend USA when you got NRA come out with this kind of stuff

how are you guys not embarassed?

#antiamericanmentalitynproud

So because of a group(NRA) and their supporters America is bad? Not everyone in the U.S. shares the same view lol. Maybe you should be anti NRA instead of anti America?

 

[TotteryManx]

I just wish we would stop arming "rebels", giving foreign aid and getting involved in other peoples shit. Would save me a nice tax dollar too.

It's all about resources. As long as we need something we will continue to give "aid."

 

[TotteryManx]

actually it might not in the long run

The most popular misconception is that the U.S. doesn't make money during war time lol.

 

[ABACABB]

I hope not Im from Poland :c

 

[Iustinus]

The US must get a ton of resources back in exchange for their immense aid to several countries in the continent for Africa, a land known for its immense wealth. One of the best things that Bush did was help combat AIDS in Africa. Boy did he hit the jackpot on that one.

I'm assuming you are not American. So you probably wouldn't remember the video the NRA did after Sandy Hook (elementary school shooting a couple of years ago) calling out Obama for having armed guards for his two young daughters and not armed guards in every building in America. They caught major heat for that, the majority would call them a fucking embarrassment to this country. You know we have more than inbred hicks here, right? Just so happens that the NRA are the voice for the inbred hicks

 

[HellblazerHawkman]

So you'll be the first to go?

Last time I checked Bushy was no longer in office and carries no significant weight. A lot of people believe he is helping Africa to overshadow his presidential term. If he was still president and did this it would be a different story. I'm not saying the U.S. doesn't do certain things to be kind...I'm saying we have allies to help in war time for a reason.

 

[Braindead]

I really hate going into political discussions because I am not well educated and frankly I just plainly don't like it. And I believe if you want to talk politics you need to be very well-educated and read TONS about it.

I don't want to get into this discussion so forgive me for coming in dropping a point then running away, but I have to reply to this:

The middle east isnt about peace. Naturally as westerners its what we would like. But unfortunately thats not how middle easterners think. In their world there is a winner and a loser. The winner rules while the loser is oppressed. Its just how things work there and that wont change for quite some time if not ever

Yeeeeeeeeeeeaaaahh.... No.
You should seriously stop talking about how we think. (Notice how I say "we"? See where I am from on my profile.)

Anyway I respect you all, and I am really proud of how a lot of people on this thread actually know what's going on here in Palestine and aren't misinformed because of the Israeli or pro-Israeli media.

Peace.

;_; how do i write it off clearly enough for you guys.

A reality like NRA has a good following in USA because a decent to good portion on americans actually dig what NRA says and this is not a thing in other countries ( even less developped ones ).

Of freakin course i'm against NRA thinking of guns on the same level of education , healthcare and so on.

I'm not trying to put stereotypes on you guys for every bad thing USA has. A very good amount of people that happen to live in the US are reasonable.

Does it come off that way because i've (jokingly) used an hashtag on a forum?Now i'm seriously wondering about that lol
