Your thoughts?

If you have other ideas then post and I'll add them to the poll.

I favour scenarios involving China.
 
Water... with Egypt up there on the list of those likely to start the thing...

of course, this is ideal: If you're going to have a world war, the third world is an ideal place to have it, there's bugger all there.
 
Other: China and Scotland, due to the breakdown in chinese sex toy exports once Phil realised he can put deep fried mars bars up his ar$e instead of Hello Kitty foot longs

(Hello Kitty might be Taiwan, but they all look the same to me anyway).
 
Natural resources or religion or some nutter using any convenient excuse.
 
the first 7 world wars (ie multi-continent, multi-country participants) were all started by France.
The wars we know of as WW-I and WW-II should correctly be labelled WW-VIII and WW-IX

No sign of a new Napoleon, yet, but considering the UK fought on the "wrong side" in the last two world wars, I wouldn't bet against the French upsetting the apple-cart again :cool:
 
Boris Johnson, or, Tony Bliar

ActuaLLY, i think BJ is OK!

A pre-emptive strike from one nation or nationals upon another such as a direct military attack, or a dirty bomb from a terrorist group.

Lets hope there is no WW4.

Many historians refer to the Cold War as WW3 btw.

I dont know about WW's, but much of the world is already AT WAR. This might not be war in the official sense - militaries fighting etc, but in the sense of many people dying it is war.
These places include -

Thailand
Latin American countries (drugs)
USA (drugs)
South Africa (drugs, other types of crime etc)


For many many millions day to day life is a struggle and their living environment is very hostile and dangerous. Knowing that a WW was also on the go, wouldnt make much difference to these people, as there is was on their own doorstep.

If it doesn't involve China and Russia, it ain't going to happen really, is it?
 
An internet rumour.................I hear they've got some WMD's...............
 
birmingham city v's aston villa fans - wreaking havoc through the streets of birmingham
