Where/When Will WW3 Start?

Ok, so they've got most of the money and they've paid to move mountains and control the rise and fall of civilizations, but to what end? Keeping the rest of us submissive? That would get boring wouldn't it. What's the end to the means?

The end is to stay in power in perpetuity. I know I'd get bored being omnipotent but I'm not psycopathic and most of those at the top definitely are so it's impossible to judge them by ordinary citeria because they have no conscience and they life to control.http://www.ponerology.com/psychopaths_2.html

North Korea couldn't launch an attack against the US west coast and Alaska. It might not be able to launch an attack against the west coast of Japan! NK has a few nukes, sure. However, they would be destroyed if they used them, even if the US didn't hit back with nukes. Their army is big, but old and unsupplied. Their tanks are 50 years old and the NK Army doesn't have enough gas to put half a tank worth of fuel in all their vehicles. They would be destroyed by South Korea and Japan's Air Forces and mopped up by the ROK's modern Army before the US even really got in the fight over there.

all the major powers have nuclear arms and everyone has someone on their side as well. i doubt any of them would be stupid enough to attack one another with this knowledge, but then again i could be giving more credit

i wonder if people expect a 3rd world war just cuz its happened before.
with this theory i guess i should expect to get the chicken pox just because its happened before eh?

During the Cold War a phrase popped up: "MAD" = Mutually Assured Destruction. For over 40 years this was respected. But the world has changed drastically and common sense is no more.
Actually we were safer with a Cold War.

i heard of a species of monkey who has giant orgies instead of fighting.
now i think we should all follow their example and make love not war

In university I read a series of 12 essays on what started the second world war. Each gave a very compelling argument for causes but none of them were the same.

The third world war started a while ago but a specific date for when it started can't be chosen until a victor writes one (provided anyone survives at all).

At this point with the advantage of being so close to modern history I think it is right to say the second world war never really ended. The argument for that, however, would be a longer more complicated post.
