WW3 is on its way rather we like it or not. The great battle between good and evil is going to resume as I see it between Islam and the western world. It will involve occupation and ultimately be over middle eastern oil supplies and the stabilazition of them. Its starting. First terror attacks, then an invasion, riots in France, and now rioting going the other way in Australia.
I hate to sound so negative and gloomy on the matter, but its been a long time since the world has really gone into all out fisticuffs with itself, and I don't think the Islamic problem is going to go away until it gets MUCH worse. I expect we'll see more rioting of this variety in other western countries and eventually on our own shores. Maybe having your shtf plan together ain't such a bad idea after all.

We have had a nostrudamus of sorts our selfs "Siener Van Rensburg" and he predicted it around 1913 all ready, He said that our trouble will not be with the Kaffers or British but with the coolies in the middle-east.
And that the whole world would be affected by this war.
The only thing that worries me is that history allways repeats itself and remember what happned to the crusades
I have long believed that an Arab World War is not a matter of if but of when. I think we've been running and hiding from it for decades and instead of being more prepared ourselves, have allowed them to prepare. The 1991 Iraq War was fought on eggshells in order to prevent an Arab World War. We should have instead, with the Cold War over and military strength yet unclintonized, let it escalate into something we could conclude instead of being so afraid of the Muslim world that we left Saddam in power just to counter them (He was a Muslim only by name, by practice he was an occultist.)

The other thing that worries me about war with the arabs is that the Europeans arn't backing the US, Canada backs the US in Afganistan but most Canadians feel that the Iraqi war is un-just how are you gonna change that?
The US have only about 6% of the worlds population, and there is no way in !!!! you can win without backing from europe, the rest of North america and hopefully some of Asia, and Australia.
Africa would for the most part gather themselfes with the Arabs to fight the "Colonials" they keep ranting about.
I think Africa would be split between Christians and Muslims. I highly doubt Christian Africans would rally to the aid of Muslim Arabs. Muslim Africans perhaps.

I really don't have a problem with fighting for oil. Oil IS a good reason to fight. We need it strategically and economically as much as any other resource. Staple resources really are a good reason to enter conflict. We'd fight for other resources.
My problem is with the way things seem to be done these days, partially out of a fear of someone using nukes (which would be a real possibility in the event of a major escalation anywhere).

I prefer to think we can kick some a** without rendering the earth uninhabitable.
If politicians would quit trying to run wars from leather bound chairs while sipping cognac in Washington, that is.

I agree 100% on the oil part, I personally can't give a chit is there was WMD in Iraq or not we need the oil so Foxtrot, Uniform, Charlie, Kilo them!
But unfortunately the rest of the world don't see it that way.

I'm not saying they'd stand behind us, but that I doubt that Christian Africans would back the Arabs in a middle eastern war. That's all I was really saying.
