General Joseph Dunford at the US Senate
I am moving this to the talk page as this seems to be controversial. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 07:42, 5 October 2016 (UTC) Uses answer to sen. Wikcer question (note in the follow-up that question was misunderstood, the answer clarified, somewhat).

Discussion
Standoff between USSR/Russia and the West started after WW2, and did not lead to a global war despite having local conflicts; their leadership was not, and is not suicidal. -However, technology allows for it.

For IS, final war is an essential part of ideology; its propaganda magazine carries the name of the place in Syria where this final war is supposed to happen. In Iran, some different but apocalyptic version too.

The ongoing proxy conflict between Russia and the West may merge these two trends above together. This is why it is important for Russia and the West to come to common grounds, as there is no ideological difference, 'just' geopolotics, egos, and greed. (Massive disinformation and stupidity, too). --Resup (talk) 07:47, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

Prophesies?
I YouTube channel called World W. 3 News has been promoting the idea from March 2016 that World War 3 will start on October 8, 2016. What is so special about this date? As of today the timing looks about right: the constantly increasing rate of escalation steps indicates that the event horizon is in October 2016. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 10:43, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

P.S. - "Event horizon" in a crisis means that no plans need to be made beyond a certain date. Long term threats can be ignored if some short term threat is likely to make preparing for them irrelevant. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 10:47, 5 October 2016 (UTC)


 * Not in my October 8 schedule. Seems to be Saker-type crowd here (if not altogether another IP collection store). I'd have no clue. --Resup (talk) 13:50, 5 October 2016 (UTC)
