Topic: Thoughts on the World War 3 and its possible impacts on future? - page 3. (Read 698 times)

Things aren't as serious as hyped by the media. You can read the recent tweets from Trump and you will find the soft tone in them. Things are getting cold and it is hard to believe that we will see any potential war from this point of time. Moreover, even if any such war happens between Iran and US, it is hard to believe that it will end up in World War. This is a issue between two countries on very trivial matter, no other country will join war fought on such petty issue.

Of course, a third world war is possible. However, not in this case because of the conflict between the USA and Iran. Both in the USA and Iran, we see sharp protests against the escalation of tension between these countries. Trump is prevented from doing this by Congress, and in Iran, his own citizens and the world community.
However, a global war is possible; now the Russian government is a constant hotbed of military tension. We see that there are quite a lot of such centers in the world, moreover, the third world war may well arise due to a malfunction of technology and human errors. Like the one claimed by the Iranian government regarding a downed Ukrainian civilian plane. However, in this case, I do not believe something in some kind of accident and error.

What changed was the USA public. Thankfully all the previous wars were in the years when social media wasn't around, "social media" has a lot more weight than it sounds because normally people chulk it up as places where people share their meals and so forth but reality is we get our news from twitter more often than TV news channels nowadays, at least quicker. With 2003 Iraq war, that social one got a little bit more famous, 2004 was when Facebook was created and by enough time everyone was talking about it, the horrifying truth about war and what it costs, not just death but lives ruined as well.

So in 2020, of course people are aware of what war actually does to a nation, even if it is in the land of Iran, american public is affected. Back in 2003 EVERYONE was in favor of war, country was patriotic, with that 9/11 being so soon as well in memory, war was something you couldn't be against or you would be labeled treator. Now everyone is against it, all public wants no wars with Iran and wants to stay away from it, they want to stay in their nation and not fight with another middle east country yet again.

As said by the posts here, there are these protocols they need to follow.

Unlike in the past where war is something done when you just want it, nowadays there are rules in declaring a war into other countries. I think it is great since war can be lessen, with the harassment of Iran to America, something sparked and I am glad that it did not continue, still, a lot of people are talking about Iran taking down an Ukranian plane.

Even though there's no recent news about the conflict between the U.S. and Iran, World War III is still possible depending on their future actions. If they continue to make attacks, it will be a never-ending attack with each other. As for Iran competing with U.S., they can do it regardless of how powerful the U.S. is. They already made their attacks so they can do it again. Iran has its allies to support them. But the consequences of WWIII is it will cause a huge damage to the country. From the properties to people. It will make a huge loss to all the businesses of the affected and involved country. It will kill thousands of people, and not only Iran and U.S. are going to be affected when this happens. It will cause a huge damage to the whole economy. And after the war, what will happen? It will take so much time for a country to recover from the damages.
If their president isn't smart enough, of course, there's someone in the government that won't agree with this war. Because it will just do no good for the country.

I believe none of these countries intentionally want to start a war. However I wouldn't discount the possibility that one can be sparked "accidentally". For example China's aggression in the S China Sea region is sometimes compared to that of Germany's leading to WW2 (a former Philippine president even compared this to the Sudetenland Crisis).

It seems that the reason is different in that China mostly want these islands for security reasons and it itself don't have a strong motivation to invade claimants for (aside from Taiwan of course) the way Germany did. And why would China want to kill its customers? Still, there's a web of alliances in this region and a single misstep could drag several countries into the fray.

Back to Iran, I think it'll be the last country that would want WW3 to explode on its face. It's economy isn't doing well, there's massive unrest, etc. It'll lose more than it can gain in such a conflict.

The third world war can begin any day. It is very likely that this can happen by mistake or because of a fateful combination of circumstances. The world has been on the verge of a third world war several times, which this time will be nuclear. In such a war, it is already difficult for humanity to survive. According to predictions, a similar war will occur, but humanity will survive this time too. It is possible that humanity will be alienated in technical development many centuries ago. Of course, humanity will simply forget about cryptocurrency, as well as about the Internet.
About twelve thousand years ago, aircraft flying under the name of vimana took off from the territory of modern India and battles were fought in near-earth orbit. Aircraft consisted of material that is not yet accessible even to modern technologies. Where is this knowledge now? They are destroyed forever. We are already somewhere in the sixth to eighth civilization on planet Earth. Will humanity even now step on the same rake? It seems that we learn little.

Despite seeing the massive destruction from wwI and II, big powers are still not settling for peace rather they are planning for ww3. If ww3 happens neither fiat nor digital currency will survive since there will be rear chances of life after ww3

Soon or later there will be a big war no doubt about it. The power will be shifted. But that won't between Iran and USA only, that can be the World War 3 and that time all the fiat money will be avoided, the digital currency will be the only way to use in larger scale!

War is a terrible thing that brings a lot of grief to people. Some people watch events from the news and are interested in this topic. But imagine that missiles are launched at your homes... these are terrible things. War always brings complete destruction to the economy of the country being attacked. Humanity is developing, technologies are developing very quickly, it is better to solve existing problems of people and build a happy future for their fellow citizens.

We can't say that it haven't any world war soon because if a lot or number of country do affect from the war from some country then we would fight. Because there are people doesn't stop until they've got what they want. Be prepared because we can still not safe from this world.

Quality of life as we have now would be totally ruin. Even if for some lucky chance there would not be some mayor nuclear war, there would be other ecological catastrophes. Most people would die in upcoming years. Mainly diseases maybe starvation. Humans would survive and after peace would come back would slowly rebuild.

So who's at fault here? If this will not be a war then someone is bullying someone and that might not spark a war but something that will be passdd and might start in the near future. It is also said by my coteachers that a war is inevitable, it might not happen this year but no one knows, it might start in the near future. I am not asking for any wars, I don't want that but the possibility of it happening, is it that high?

with how china trying to expand their territory and their dispute with several countries over the territory, it'll be just a matter of time before another war or world war started. it may not
happen this decade or the next decade but it'll come. me being in a weak country hopes that no world war will ever happen again but it is just inevitable(at least in my view). also, as their
population, military power and economic power increases it's only a matter of time before they surpass U.S.A

There will never be another world war. It's bad for business in a way it wasn't a few generations ago. Everything is now too interconnected.

There'll be brief skirmishes and endless wars fought between proxies. The only open warfare between larger powers will be economic.

There is a reason they call it theatre of war. Amount of lies and misinformation by both parties has only one goal, confuse and misled outside observers, in order to drive them closer to theatre of operations. Creation of a melting-pot situation seems of up most importance today. There is also a case of a test on how, so called allies, will react and what kind of forces are at the disposal of your adversary. I think we saw just that, things that media are practically silent about is the role of Hezbollah in this debacle.
What we were seeing there was imo a classic mexican-standoff, where quite an impressive arsenal was presented to an American challenger. Presentation is of course is one thing, direction in which weapons are facing is the other. It was presumed that more than 100K earth-earth ballistics where aimed in general direction of the "most important ally". 'We were not involved and should not be dragged into it,' Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said but no body was actually asking... and the situation was magically de escalated. Serious threat of a global conflict was in my opinion at play, this should not be taken lightly. On the other hand, how else this mystical global reset can be triggered? War mongers are real, just like Eisenhower said, the catastrophic misplacement of power have happened, are people ready to address this issue? Regardless, the course of living in "interesting times" is upon us. Winter is coming and our (btc) market is already in reaction to it.

Now, both countries are silent and calm but we don't know what will they do in coming years because they have a lot of issues not only the death of one of their Generals. Although US just killed a certain person but Iran really did something brutal other than that. They shot a Ukrainian plane and it is much worst than the killed General. But if the war continues, it will really destroy a lot of agricultural society that will leave people dying and they can encounter famine.

No World War III would happen. I'd say both Iran and US know the repercussions of an event such a war, so I doubt the feud between the two would escalate to that. A war would only most likely happen in this world once resources are being started to be fought over, and diplomatic talks are not enough to calm those countries whom are in the brink of losing their resources.

Still, I kind of understand the fears and assumptions of the people, with how the current "supreme" leader is acting towards the US president, as well as towards the results of the "accidental" hit of missile of Iran to the Ukrainian plane. Then there's also Trump, we all know how Trump acts and really, his actions are sometimes unpredictable and most likely goes against literally what everyone wants. Though I doubt that both of them don't know what War really entails.

the economy and politics will always coexist even though its implementation is always absurd, when the US attacked Iran a few days ago Iranians thought their currency would fall and then exchange it for commodities, and after that the crypto market rose a few percent overall, I don't know whether this was caused by war or not, but it would have an economic and political impact from both countries or spread to other countries.
I do not know whether this war was deliberately made by the US in the interests of their political or economic interests. Clearly the war would have a huge negative impact not only on the two countries but other countries affected as well.

The US doesn't care about Iran's oil, they have plenty of their own oil, and oil itself will be less important in the future because of the rise of renewables and the threat of climate change.

 This whole incident with Iran shows that no one wants WWIII, Iran didn't escalate after the killing of their general, the US didn't escalate after missile attacks, Ukraine and Canada didn't escalate after the plane got show down, Russia and China did absolutely nothing all this time. Look at the history of WWI - all countries wanted to go war, and with WWII Germany and Soviet Union were very eager to go to war, but this time it's nothing like that.

As for impact on the future and economy, it's really pointless to talk about it, there's way to many scenarios - maybe it will be nuclear apocalypse, maybe the war won't be that destructive, and without knowing who will win it, you can't know how it will impact the world.
