that's a good starting point for so-called "WW3" theories.
do a search on it, and you'll find all you need- because it's been brought up many times.

If they are with the US, no, because no one will F with the US.
If you are sayingg that other countries go against the US, maybe - but it's their funeral

If only one other country with a decent military (say russia, china, france, or germany) went and backed the Iraqi resistance the US would be screwed... they are having enough trouble there now against badly-equipt civilians, imagine how #ed they'd be with a trained well-equipt military resisting them

don't be mistaken.
if the US was actually in a "war" situation they could beat anybody.
by "war", I mean, politcally able to just shoot the hell out of everything and everyone.
the US is only having trouble because they're trying not to shoot ANYONE.
nothing of iraq would still be standing and everyone would be dead if the goal was to "win a war" against iraq.

As Powerful as the USA is, they're not invicible... If only one other country with a decent military (say russia, china, france, or germany) went and backed the Iraqi resistance the US would be screwed... they are having enough trouble there now against badly-equipt civilians, imagine how #ed they'd be with a trained well-equipt military resisting them... if only that very thing would happen and the USA were put in their place...
As for this becoming WWIII, i think WWIII has already happened, it wasnt like the first two world wars, it was a cold war, the cold war in fact... WW4 it may be, if this phony 'war on terror' escalates and people gradually get more and more pissed off at the states. Eventually a country with power will say enough is enough... But the hostage thing wont trigger that
