My thoughts are simple, thank god I'm moving to Alaska in 3 weeks. On a more serious note, I think Russia will pull back if things get too heated... they wouldn't want to risk war with us, it would be suicide for both nations.
I am no nut nor am I a conspiracy freak, how ever we may be standing on the verge of world war. As anyone who watches the news knows the Georgian Republic and Russia have begun fighting a war. Now this might not in and of itself mean a lot to us however the US has sided with Georgia, telling Russia in simple terms to go home and leave this alone. Georgia as a lot of people might know have the 3rd largest amount of troupes in the Iraq war next to the US and Britain. Form what I have read Russia does not seem to want to back down as they feel Russians have lost their lives. Now this tiny war might not mean anything how ever if the USA was to mobilize any troupes against Russia THIS would start the next world war. And folks when the worlds 2 largest nuclear super powers start fighting chances are very slim things will end well.
Anyone else following this at all and if so what are your thoughts

If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.
no I don't think that at all. I think Russia would be okay with going to war with us and I think we would be too. not the citizens, but you know what I mean.
They must find it difficult...Those who have taken authority for the truth, rather then truth as the authority.
War against russians!? Havent our grandfathers been waiting on this one? lol
It wont happen, But if it did...
Id like to be far away from the blast. someone would get nuked![]()
Your thread started with the premiss that the Earth is on the edge of a world war. The sad reality is this, everyday since 1950 that statement has been true. The thing that changes are the situations and the countries involved.
I do not believe Russia and Georgia will start WWIII. A more likely start to Armageddon is Iran sending a nuke to Israel. Then Israel sends nukes to Iran and Syria.
yeah I'm tying this in to armageddon too and it doesn't fit

i agree w/ mock, world war 3 will be started between iran and isreal!! that nut in power in iran may even try to invade iraq when troops leave (?) there!!
i sometimes wonder if it would be such a bad thing. a limited nuclear exchange, the decimation of a major portion of the population and the lingering memory in the minds of the survivors of just how far a little bit of saber rattling can go (provided, of course, that there are survivors). a bit of a return to savagery to remind us that we are merely residents here and a lasting monument of the foolishness of our quest for dominion.
i must be a little depressed this morning. i usually don't go into these fatalistic funks unless i've been drinking.
Ages of experience testify that the only way society can be improved is by the individualist method ..., that is, the method of each 'one' doing his very best to improve 'one'.
I watched a bit about this last night and it seems to me the U.S concern with the region is the georgia has a huge oil pipeline running thru it from the caspian sea. It skirts the southern border of georgia, staying clear of russia and iran. coupled with the fact that the U.S is pushing for georgia to be part of NATO. they are most concerned with keeping that pipeline safe. Looks like it all about the oil. Funny how I really don't even know what they are fighting about all I hear about is the U.S involvement. And it being agian about oil.
well said ice, amen
