SN, you might be interested in the following...

It's deemed politically incorrect to talk about the 'red' elephant in the room, and whenever someone of prominence does, they are immediately shot-down and regarded a conspiracy theorist.

So lets not speak of it.

Let's not. Bullshit needs to be kept to a minimum. :thumb

Back to the topic.

it was reported today in the UK that Cameron has been in contact with Obama and now Rudd. It looks to be that the 51st 9UK) and 52nd (Aust) states of the US are now poodling along behind big daddy to engage in another war. This time it is very serious.

This could be the beginning of something catastrophic if it all goes wrong.

Now my strategy is, if all goes to shit is to return home. A continent on the other side of the world far away from these crazy fucks. So keep Australia tidy please.

I think this is all about the lessons the west learned by ignoring Hitler. We feel we must intervene early or things get worse later. if China and Russia really dig their heals in, and the US (and poodle states) go in without a UN mandate/resolution from the Security Council, it will be technically illegal and the whole UN will fall apart. No international law will apply to any of the big boys and this could grow and then we will have a bigger war.

If feels to much like preceding event that lead to Iraq. It's going to happen and no-one has an exit strategy. Without on this time.... it's going to go to pot.

I feel sometimes we should just build a big ring fence around the middle east. let them fight it out over 20 years until they get sick of war. The only problem with this is that such isolationist policy could lead to a powerful state that will threaten us all. So we feel to need to act, under the excuse a few civilians died due to state sponsored chemical attacks that have yet to be proven.

This is fucked up and is not going to go to well.

Time to buy a plot at Lightning Ridge and sit under ground. maybe join Outlaw Yogi in the bush away from this fucked up world.

10. What happens next

The world waits. "You would think the way diplomatic manoeuvrings are going that if there is some kind of military strike it would be quite limited," Dr Shanahan says. "It would be punitive, not designed to tip military balance."

In other words, no Iraq-style invasion or prolonged Western intervention.

I heard this view reported. What are we thinking. Let's go and punish someone. What sort of leadership of the world is that.

If we start behaving this way... it is the beginning of the world going to a bad place.

"They" have been talking about WW3 ever since WW2 was "won". :mrgreen:

Somebody should blow up the Middle East before they actually do something that the USA (etc) can't handle and I suspect that the USA already has this stuff and has had it for a long time.

Remember the movie "On The Beach"?

I doubt that the POTUS whoever he may be, would ever press the button to blow up The World but you never know, do you?

Someone mentioned the correlation between economic down turn and new wars.

Think of it, WW3 will be great for the economies of the world.... at least for the loser. They will be able to rebuild. Economic activity and growth. We have the solution.

Make heaps of money by investing in Arms, Oil and Gold.... a great time for some.

President Of The United States... POTUS

Hmmm..

We should give all the mad mullahs a wide berth and let them kill each other off.
Re the UN, since Russia are such good buds of Syria we should just say, hey buddy, they are your mates. get in there and fix it.

After all the smoke has cleared we can help clean up what's left...

I really do hate the Sheriff of the world mentality and feel sorry for the US people with governments that think they have to fill that role.

Help your friends... leave the other buggers to sort themselves out.

Yes, but WW3 won't resemble anything like WW1 or 2. Think atomic bomb but worse. Chemical warfare and so forth! Not fun but perhaps instantaneous which would be a blessing.

Some so-called religious people think that the End of the World will be what WW3 will be.

I dislike us being dependent on the USA, regardless. I also think that we should NOT follow the USA into wars such as Iraq and Afghanistan. It is all very well for the US of A as they have a HUGE population of "military" which keeps their unemployment figures down.

I had an email friend who knew George W Bush and his parents (Barbara and George) personally. It was quite amusing as when GWB came to Australia she actually rang his Mother and asked whether "the kids" liked Australia. The kids? :rofl

Sometimes I think we are a stupid species and really don't have the right to longer term survival.

It's in our nature to kill each other.
