Nostradamus and the 3rd World War

Hi, I was reading an old book Ive had for quite awhile now tonight. The name is

"Nostradamus: Countdown to the Apocalypse & Into the Twenty-First Century". The Author is

Jean-Charles de Fontbrune.

I wanted to post a few quatrains, to share some possible parallels with the quatrains and

our current pre-war climate.

CVIII,Q28
"There will be talk of pease between very powerful heads of states [USA-USSR]; but peace

will not be agreed, for the heads of state will be no wider than any others."

CII,Q40
"After a not very long interval a great war will break out on land and sea. The naval

combats will be the most important. The ferocity [of men] will be worse than the war

itself"

CVII,Q35
"They will complain of lost wealth and weep over choosing [responsible polititians] who will make mistakes from time to time. Very few men will want to follow them, deceived as they will be by their speeches."

CIII,Q26
"The heads of state and governments will fabricate imitations [of gold; excess of paper money]; Prophets will make forecasts devoid of sense [speeches of polititians and economists]. The horn of plenty [consumer society] will fall victim to them and violence will follow peace. The prophecies will be fullfilled."

CII, Q65
"The economy in decline, there will be a great calamity in the West and Italy, war, disaster, and captivity will affect the church. The time of pillage will ruin Monaco."

Before the people blood will be shed,
Only from the high heavens will it come far:
But for a long time of one nothing will be heard,
The spirit of a lone one will come to bear witness against it.

Nostradamus prophecies about ww3 have always caught my eye but it does seem some of his predictions could be coming true which would be the worst thing that humans will ever see.

Definitely some interesting quatrains, there do indeed seem to be some parallels between what Nostrodamus has to say here and what is happening in the world right now.
Nostrodamus is frustrating though, his quatrains are always so vague!!!!
Only time will tell i guess! S&F

One theory about Nostradamus is that he was writing in an occult language called the Language of the Birds, or the Green Language. The whole book is about alchemy and nothing to do with predictions.

It's said that he mixed up the chronological order of the verses to conceal the prophecies from the Church so as to avoid suppression, but how would they know what order they were supposed to be in if they were about future events?
In other words, jumbling up the order makes no sense if they are future predictions.
