Bloody ridiculous shit isn't it. Palestine is in the shit with Israel, India and everyone else in the Middle East.

If anything is going to go to hell, its either going to start with the Gaza strip i figure if Israel and Hamas don't stop or something with Iran and some Middle East Country or a reckless US General.

Any thoughts on the growing violence?

Nothing new, really.

Human race have destructive nature thats a fact lol
Plus there's always will be war as long as religions exist. (not that theres other factors that cause wars)
Soo yes as Chavez said, nothing new...

In the end humanity will exterminate itself lol.

Heh, you forgot to mention religious factions inside of religions! But I say WWIII will start mainly from some country using nukes or something... and not for testing.

They keep blaming each other for whatever attacks occur; it is an endless chain reaction of "no u!"s.
And even if one of them stepped up and stopped the attacks of their side, both countries are full of people that got firepower but no brains.

This childish fight of theirs isn't going to end until mom or dad (US or Russia, for examples) step in with force, or Israel & Palestine blow each other up from existence, whichever comes first.

you know what the entire thing is englands fault for making israel up before wwII it didnt exist england created it and palestine wants it back.

Source?

Israel was created after WW2, for 2 reasons: to move the jews that survived the holocaust, and to make a US/England/France allied in the arabic lands, since most of these were friendly to the Soviet union.
let's not forget that the Middle east is full of oil, so another reason to make an ally there.(and to me, US attack to iraq was to get oil).
the source is from my history class.

Then Uglyogre is tracing the blame too far into the past I'd say. We don't blame Hitler's parents for what happened to Germany in the early 1900s, so why should we blame the allied nations for what is happening in Israel of today?

Id' have to say i'm on israel's side.. They have over the centuries fought off all these suicidal people all around them trying to take there little land, and all they are trying to do is hold onto there small contry.. And good for them.. Somebody needs to be pro active.. Instead of Signing "deals", it's like zimbabwe.. Just kill HIM(Mugabe)!!!

I hope it will never happen but it will happen even if many countries, try to calm down the bad opinions ...

Well they did drop (create) Israel in one of the most difficult and ancient places in the world and expect everyone to stay happy. Munich proved that this would just escalate the problems with Israel.

If WW3 comes, think it will happen IF USA can't control it's economy, and another country takes the position of superpower.
or...
Th economical crises in the world leads to the creation of several totalitarian governments(i.e Nazists-like, Fascist-like) and these begin to challenge the superpower.

Fallout 3.

All I got to answer on that.

Yep...


Shit be cyclical!

Hey, look; party A has decided that party B should die because party B is doing the stuff that party A wants party B to do. How unprecedented...

you know what will stop ww3 once it starts?

a single nuke.


america nukes the side who started shit (or is making shit worse), everyone else shuts up (well at first they might whine a bit about how its illegal and inhuman to use nukes, but eventually they will change their opinion) and we go back to living like we are right now (except the nuked people of course, they wont be living at all)

also on a more tactical note, there wont be direct wars between major countries anymore, they will be proxy wars, like hamas and israel is really israel and iran, just like vietnam was us and russia. in this type of world conflict, the closest we can come to a world war is serbia invading argentina, while brazil fights off somalia. each country will be supported by their "allies" of course.

my source its history after wwII palestine was split into israel and a smaller palestine israel being for displaced jews the idea was. but ever since they have been warring for land

why the hell we would fight somalis?

This idea is actually not bad on paper. The best way to make troublemakers quiet is to show them who's the boss. A single nuke will not get rid of the middle East though, the land is way too big. It would be better to blow up a "warning" nuke first though, far away from populated areas but still within the warzone.

Because they stole our cornflakes.

What happens if the other side nukes the shit out of America?

...

That would take hundreds of nukes.

PUH-LEEZ
not even khrushchev was that stupid, and he once banged his shoe on the table at the UN, not to mention he promised to bury us (although one could argue that the terrorists are worse, since they THROW shoes at our president, and promise to also bury us)



besides america has an excellent missile shield.

I will not be there
(this is a joke, obviously. what will happen? probably it will make the world( or a large portion of it) unhabitable due to radiation. or America will nuke the other country to hell and then the world will become cosmic dust)

Nuke DC and its ♥♥♥♥♥ screwed for the next 100 years. Yes army bases all across would respond, but still... I still think America is too paranoid of everything, hopefully the next 4 (i pray 8 ) years will prove me wrong.



*Rolleyes*

Wait, what?

Are people actually advocating the use of nuclear weapons here? Seriously?

The very last thing we want is a nuclear World War 3. One nuke is enough to trigger that.

Millions of people could die if the nuked country decided to fight back with its own nukes. There is a completely valid reason why we've been avoiding the use of and attempting to destroy weapons of mass destruction over the past 50 years.

They are not a "Problem Fixer" in any way.

You don't need hundreds of nukes to destroy a country.

Besides, the very act of nuking any relatively defenseless country would be so counter to American ideals that even if nobody decided to retaliate with nuclear weapons, the public outcry from such an act would be enough to destroy the country. We'd tear ourselves apart.
