With countries like North Korea testing long range missiles, and now nuclear warheads; and screw ups like Iraq, the peices of world war are falling into place. Instead of a battlefield in Europe this time, it seems our enemies will be spread out world wide on multiple fronts; with Guerilla warfare in the Middle East and South America, and advaced warfare in Asia, it is a scary combination if these powers join together. Places like Iran hate our guts, and have no problem with using chemical/biological warfare. Probably the worst part is our dependace on oil is actually funding these countries to develope their millitary technology. Before I give you my opinion on what will happen, what are your thoughts on the issue? | ||

My opinion is the world is wasting resources fighting itself when we need to be a collective looking to colonize another planet/galaxy. When the day comes that we need to get off the planet we are really gonna wish we made less nuclear submarines, and instead spent the effort in supporting posterity in larger strides. Terror is a tactic in war, both sides use it. To say there is a war on terror is to say that there is a war on a tactic of war. Or a war on war. Which is recoculous to wage. Sadam was an evil dictator if the information we have gotten about him is true. War is bad, but Iraq was stifled under Sadam. If Iraq changes for the better its neighbors may follow suite. North Korea is a nation of people that are intelligent and have honor. I doubt they are going to destroy the world with their nukes. Doesn't mean they wont trade one for some food to feed their people to someone that will use a nuke on a city though. Iran, well I dont know what I think. We provided them with arms, and now they are doing the same thing for Hesbellah. They took hostages during Carter and we failed a rescue. They did give the hostages back though, showing some humanity. Overall I think that we just need to get out of the affairs of Iraq and see what unfolds. We have forces over there just occupying a city doing nothing besides "security." All that is is a target with no real objective. If we were helping them construct some infrastructure our presence would make more sense. Im not saying we aren't making them infrastructure to replace what was destroyed, but I haven't heard about a project to get Iraq anything that would increase tourism. We need to increase their water supply, energy supply and agricultural self sufficiency. If we can do that there will be a waiting list of countries that want for us to come invade them. |

The only way WWIII won't be nuclear is if the middle east begins to like us, somehow.... I'm cool with staying in Iraq if in 5 years we actually ACCOMPLISH something. It's pretty inevitable that the next president will be democratic, though, So i doubt we will stay in Iraq for more than 2 more years. Life kicks so much ass - it's sad that we'll probably fuck up our planet hugely before we go out. |

Aws, so true. Once our society focuses on expansion, or global survival we will be safe. Until then, hotheads want to threaten and possibly kill many people. If we built a ship to go to another world AS a world, it would unite us more. This world is starting to suck, lets GTFO. |

We don;t currently have the technology or resources to make a significant migration offworld. The likelyhood of a devastating nuclear confontation is so great right now that we will not have the time to make colonization a reality before hand. That said - it is up to all of us (yeah you too) to work tirelessly to reduce the risk of nuclear war and work to build a society here on earth that will support all of us. Finding a way to live without the fear of the unfamiliar that leads to mistrust and therefore to war should be paramount to every resident of this beautiful world of ours. Brotherhood, not martyrdom, should be the goal of all. We can share the planet with those different from us, whether it is color, religion, political belief, and, through tolorence, find the necessary inner strength to share all of the resources of the planet to better the life of all of those that inhabit it. Take the resources, monetary and brain power, that are currently put towards military buildup throughout the world, and put them to assuring power for all (not from carbon) and improving the distribution of food resources would go a long way to stabilizing the worlds political turmoil. We currently have the capability to produce enough of both power and food for every peron on the planet, but the power hungry leaders are more focused on their own aggrandizement that freedom from hunger and fear of destruction will not happen in our life time unless WE make it happen. get out and make yourself heard. Work to replace those that lead us into destruction with those that lead us into world peace so we and our grandchildren can have a safe haven from which to prepare for the greater glory of space colonization. |

If only everybody thought this way but, crazy fucks like kim jon ill (however the fuck its spelled) will never stop craving more and more power. I think the only way to have peace is to have all countries under one rule like an advance form of democracy. | ||
