Why? There's no good reason for any war or violence.
...are those who've helped us.
Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.
So I guess we will be seeing you at the Army recruitment office asap

That was a fairly awful column.
No this isn't a world war, because the main combatant isn't really fighting. Yes, America's weapons and its armies are roaming and pillaging and destroying, and I guess attempting to rebuild, and shift and change the world. But the average American only pays for it with his taxes, or more appropriately with their promise to spend the rest of their lives paying down the debt for it.
Their is a clash of global ideologies, which was the inevitable result of globalization, the anger of the have nots, versus the ruthless efficiency of the banking institutions that are keeping them poor. The fighting is a small extension of the causes to this ideological clash. Their is no great terrorist power waging war, it is a series of cells comprised of angry people from different levels of education and status trying to blunt their anger against the biggest most reachable cause of their anger.
North Korea will never launch a nuclear weapon against anyone, they have no desire for suicide, just attention and power. And what gaurantee does Iran have that their won't be a pre-emptive war without developing nuclear weapons?
When peak oil hits, or the US economy collapses under the weight of its phenomenal debt, that's when something approaching World War III will come.

Agree. Nice assessment. A worthy read.

Pretty much kicked off in 2001. Tried to get goin in the 90's but now I believe it's in it's 5th full year with a few tragic ones ahead as long as pacificts try to appease militant islamic facists. Unfortunately, not all can be taken out, but to sit back and say how horrible the U.S. is and Israel is and try to actually rationalize with evil militant islamists is a travesty.
Amen brotha! But then again, not many on here take it seriously, sadly... They still have time!
At this point...I'd say we've got about 5 more to go.
time for what....?
