BREAKING: KING OF JORDAN WARNS OF WORLD WAR III
Sub for more: http://nnn.is/the_new_media | Jordan's King Abdullah II warned Tuesday of a "third world war" stating that it would be quote, “against humanity...
I am not going to say that I called but I do recall a long time ago, ten years or so, I thought this would play out. I heard a sermon about a WWIII with China. Looking at it there is really no way China could take on the US. We are just too powerful and they would lose far too much. But Islamic Militants are another story. They could strike just about anywhere and don't need to operate in a large numbers.
Now King Abdullah of Jordan is warning of this. Now Russia and France are joining together bring the fight to ISIS. We don't have a coalition really on this on par with any of those of the past wars. The more ISIS strikes the more of a chance that will happen.
Is this something that could happen? Would anyone side with ISIS? After watching how Turkey acted in their moment of silence I am not really sure who they are for now.

I don't know if there will ever be a world war lll in the paradigm of the last century's world wars. Large nation states have efficient non kinetic tactics (cyber, financial, proxy wars) that are much less costly than an overt conventional war. Also, military stratagist have been writing about a paradigm shift to irregular warfare for decades now, even if many in the pentagon refuse to accept it. Therefore, in my opinion, I don't think we'll see anything that looks like WWI & WWII for the forseable future. Hopefully we will realize that we have been fighting a variation of the same war for over a decade - a war against a global insurgency who's ideology is a radical interpretation of Islam. Once we accept that, accept that WE ARE AT WAR, then maybe we'll develop a strategy to fight a protracted global insurgency.

Well said. Though I would add that many of people in history have been wrong with the statement of "we'll never see this kind of war again." I'm pretty sure that was said before every major conflict.

LTC Yinon Weiss - I was doing some history work and read some literature about the North Carolina Civil War units. It was wrote right after the end of the Civil War. One thing I found interesting was that they didn't call it the Civil War. They called it the Great War. I think found the same thing being said for WWI. I am sure that any war to that generation is great. It is all really relative.

CPT (Join to see), I don't believe that this current action will cause a World War III, unless Iran (or another country in the region) actually comes up with a nuke, and uses it. That would change the entire playing field, and we still don't know exactly which side certain parties would take.
On a slightly off the subject comment, reference your WWIII with China comment. During a lecture, way back when, on the works of Nostradamus, it was hypothesized that one of his quatrains referred to The US and Russia fighting together against China in what was called the, "third and final great war", if I am recalling correctly. It was just interesting that you brought it up.

PVT Robert Gresham, it doesn't sound like much fun.

Prophecies of Nostradamus, Part 5 of 5: World War III
Because of the new awareness the western civilization has come upon, and because of the accelerated rate of the shifting of the earth's crust, and because of the conjunction of the planets, the war "might" be avoided, depending on the speed at which the natural events occur. For as in any civilization, when natural disasters occur, this is more prominent than military conquest.

Capt Seid Waddell - Thank you for that. I've saved the link after a quick scan. You are absolutely right, it sounds really bad !!

There won't be a WWIII over this. There may be a combined and sustained military operation against ISIS elements, but you can't really win this war with strict military aggression.
And no sovereign government will side with ISIS - ever. That'd be a quick ticket to more "freedom" than anyone really wants.

MAJ Bryan Zeski, that is the optimistic view, and I hope you are right. At the same time I recall the Taliban government in Afghanistan supporting al-Qaeda.
