I don't think we're anywhere near World War 3. You don't see the troop migrations you'd see if there were to be a major mulitnational conflict. The only countries that are posturing are Russia(defensive) and the United States(offensive), and because we're two superpowers doesn't make this world war by proxy. This is a regional conflict, based mostly over raw material and land. Right now, oil is power, accumulation of land is leverage. You can guarantee that without the control of Iraq, maybe even Iran, there will be NO world war, or even a regional conflict outside Islamic states. War with any nation besides Iran is 10 years off, I still don't see us going into Iran within the next year either.
