Secretary General of Nato, Jens Stoltenberg, said the allied nations are putting hundreds of thousands of troops in a state of high alert in an effort to deter a mounting threat from Moscow.

While Nato cut its defence budget and military investment since the fall of the Soviet Union, Russia has been bolstering its military capabilities, holding parades involving more than 100,000 troops each year.

I watched an amateur advertisement today that I feel sums up the situation.


www.youtube.com...

That ad describes simply and succinctly one reason why all of this is important. I've heard it theorized that the moment Clinton is sworn in as POTUS will be the moment Russia starts WW3. If Russia feels that WW3 is inevitable, that may be the rational move.

I realize the source of this article isn't the best, but they're quoting the Secretary General of Nato. I posted the following in another thread, but almost no one saw it. I think it bears repeating.

It seems the most popular tactic to derail topics in the WW3 forum right now is to change the topic to "nuclear war won't happen."

1. The "nuclear war won't happen" argument can't be proven because no one knows the future.

2. The "nuclear war won't happen" argument is a type of logical fallacy. The argument could be an example of the gambler's fallacy or an example of the appeal to tradition fallacy depending on how it's used.

3. The "nuclear war won't happen" argument is a red herring concerning all of the different ways that WW3 could happen.

The article linked to at the top of this post is confirmation that a U.S.-Russia war could break out in cyberspace soon. Where would things go from there? It may not seem like much, but anything could be dangerous at this point.

ByME: (formatting is messing up).

WW3 has been theorized here every day for years for any number of reasons.

I think UNs map of 10 regions explain a lot of the tention we see today between Russia and the US. And also Turkey, Syria and Iraq.

According to the map of 10 regions. Ukriane is to belong to the regional Power of Russia. But that is not happening since the US have put their foot Down.

I also recall Putin saying that the US is not fallowing the rules. I think Putin might be refering to a poste agreement made by the major Powers in the UN about these 10 future regional Powers.

I think both the US and Russia would go to war to protect their interests. And i think the UN map is a Clue to the conflicts we see today.

It also explains the US rocket Shield put in Place in easter europe.......The US are protecting their regional Power by doing this.

A big part of the reason I post WW3 threads is to read the nonsensical, childish replies. I don't know if it's hilarious or tragic.

The Russians just cut military spending by 30%.

That doesnt seem to fit very well with the narrative that Russia is intending to take over the world.

What's this obsession you have with Russia? You do realize that the US has started mots major conflicts in the last 100 years. Try google, you'll be surprised

The minute I click on these Nato/Russia I know it's you spouting more nonsense. The good part is that you only usually have 1 or 2 posts in your threads, even you can't be bothered hanging around.

Doom porn much? I mean really? Just STOP


You OP are literally the only one who posts this garbage. Russia and WW3 is no more of a threat than North Korea is with South Korea.

Let it go and move on to something actually constructive.

Looks like a last countermeasure to try and influence the polls,they already blamed Russia for hacking the emails. .

These belittling posts trying to stifle the OP and others like him for your own post count and for the aforementioned joy of stifling is pretty lame tbf.

If you disagree with the OP that's your prerogative, why be rude? I'm assuming most of are over the age of understanding respect for your fellow man?

Back to the topic. Whilst I don't necessarily believe WW3 will come from Russia and the US in solitude, it's clear there's gearing up going on for something and now is the perfect time (elections) to bring it to the forefront. There'll be a culmination of "small" skirmishes that'll evolve IMO.

A waiting game...

I've started 71 threads in the WW3 forum and none of them have been closed or moved to the trash bin forum. What are you referring to?

You're posting in a thread with the following information:


Nato is organising the “biggest reinforcement of its collective defence since the end of the Cold War”
REUTERS

...

Jens Stoltenberg, the alliance’s secretary-general, did not give precise figures, but Sir Adam Thomson, Britain’s outgoing permanent representative to Nato, said he thought that the goal was to speed up the response time of up to 300,000 military personnel to about two months. At present a force of this size could take up to 180 days to deploy.

This news is undeniably huge and on-topic. People are complaining because it's been posted? We're reaching new lows here.

This is the strangest behavior yet in the WW3 forum. I understand the old "if you can't attack the message, attack the messenger" tactic, but claiming that this huge news isn't related to what's been going on for months concerning the NATO/Russia situation is simply denying reality. It could be that the reason so many here can't be reasoned with is because they're in denial.
