8. Is WWIII inevitable?

Putin has essentially announced that he will do what he wants, threatening grave consequences to any country who attempts to intervene.

I think we need to think long and hard about when we want to fight WWIII. Is it now. Or is it in the future with an even more emboldened Russia and their ally, China.

I realize we sat and watched for quite a while as Germany decimated Europe before getting into WWII. Maybe we shouldn't have.

I'm not typically hawkish. This feels different to me though.

No, no it is not Celerity Feb 2022 #10

One major reason there has not been a WWIII is the US and Russia use proxy wars. marie999 Feb 2022 #12
