World War 3 is it coming?

Discussion in 'Economics' started by bat1, Jul 20, 2010.

  1. The question remains - are there more natural disasters etc. now than there were in the past? Or does the wealth of information that is now available via the internet, satellites, etc. make it SEEM as though more shit is hitting the fan.

  2. I saw a report on CNBC that USA has sold $143 Billion worth of arms/weapons to other countries from year 2001 to 2008. USA is the biggest supplier of arms to the world and it is a profitable business for USA.

    So you're saying we need to kill more people through war so that, when these natural disasters happen less people die? :confused:

  7. Clancy's book "The Bear and The Dragon" is a good read. Old Tom does his homework.

  9. You really should read the report I mentioned above.

    The probability is actually quite high that we will experience a battle with the Chinese with the next few years.

    The bad news - We will loose.

    Their ICBMs can easily target any city in the US.

    Their sub mariners are regularly harassing our fleet.

    And what is more disturbing, they seem much better at e-warfare then we are.

    They have economic interest to protect, and they don't want us in their way - it is a matter of when, not if.
