the number of bullets hasent changed much but the number of guns has increased, the eu is in a position to make choices that have a far more meaningful impact (be it good or bad) than they did during the gulf war, the chinese can get involved, while during the gulf they had issues they were sorting out, japan is militerizing (though i think thats a good thing), north korea is on the map and is a mouse carrying dynomite

if north korea makes the first move in any conflict, even china says they are on their own, so i wouldn't count NK in there.

i think its more a consern that they end up taking the second move

NK don't want war. The only reason they want nukes is so that no one invades them.

if the usa is involved in a conflict already of greater magnitude than its been in in 30 years than china wont be as intimidated and will give nk a longer leash, nk will see that and the fact the usa is more distracted as an oppertunity to be a retard

NK needs china, and why would china nuke the us? It would cause them take a major hit to their economy

i've become jaded to WW3 since literally every little thing is "this will be WW3!" and has been that way for basically all of my life.

you know how long "NK is gonna start firing off nukes!" has been around?

the last 10-20 years at least.

hell, why haven't we attacked them yet? aren't we like a year overdue for that now?

china can justify a self defense war much better than it can a world war, but can use a self defense to restructure its economy into a milierized one and low key shift out of consumer communism and into something more like NK but with actual weight behind it

and then need to start a war or kill its own economy?

china basicly uses slave labor already, thats actualy kind of a good place to start if you want a cheap and productive war machine

i think the thing is no one wants to be first, because the first shooter is the loser right now

thats why im complaining about america and its bullshit

admitedly america can get away with shooting first and maybe winning

they didn't shoot first, russia already shot first in syria

but it gives everyone else an excuse to do what theyve wanted to do for 50 years

syria is their alley

and they have been accused of using chemical weapons in syria

you can only spin russia as a bad guy there if your cnn

and are still in hot water over the whole diplomat poisoning

theres substantial evidence they didint actually do that poisoning

Nor use chemical weapons.

consitering they were accused of that before the actual poison was identified and it turned out to not actually be the poison that the uk accused them of using

there is no "shooting first" in syria anymore. because both sides have backed 1 or more sides.

and conveniently that story never made it to MSM

like the girl who was poisoned is awake right now

has been for a month

i've basically written off any conflict in the middle east area as just more of the same bullshit

russia wasent really involved until recently

you must remimber, staying out of russias shit was why we voted against hillery

it just kind of seems like that didint go anywhere

yes, so now history is going to repeat itself over there?

no, like i just said the world is a different place now

humans don't change

same game, different skin

War has changed.

more players
