K181 09/14/22 3:24:21 PM #5:	I doubt it. Each country's military-industrial complexes are reliant on globalization. Major powers going to war would result in their own economies and industrial bases shutting down, even if global factions formed. My expectation is more regional conflicts becoming major proxy wars for various blocs to pump funds into. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. <cite>K181 posted [p:968031508] in Will there...

Vampire_Chicken 09/14/22 4:19:08 PM #9:	The first (metaphorical) shots will be fired in cyberspace. (You might say it's happening already.) Clandestine, low-intensity warfare that can cause significant disruption to an enemy with enough containment to prevent things from spiralling into a nuclear exchange. Countries whose only defence is a nuclear deterrent that they're reluctant to use for fear of mutually assured destruction will be at a disadvantage. <cite>Vampire_Chicken posted [p:968032801] in Will there...

Vampire_Chicken 09/15/22 8:07:03 AM #17:	Zikten posted... People who voted for never, should know that after ww1, nobody thought ww2 would ever happen Untrue. Plenty of people felt that another major conflict in Europe was was increasingly possible. That's precisely why veterans' associations were so vocal about the need to do whatever it took to avoid it -- and why it was felt important to appease Hitler by trading land (e.g. the Sudetenland) for peace. Anyone who read past the front page of their newspaper between 1918-23 would have been aware that regions of Europe were being torn apart by inter-state and intra-state violence. All the ceasefire of November 1918 meant was that the shooting stopped in western Europe; elsewhere, it continued or was just getting started. <cite>Vampire_Chicken posted [p:968047824] in Will there...

Apparently they felt it was absolutely fine for Germany to force France to pay an indemnity of 5 billion francs within five years for the cost of the Franco-Prussian War (which France did) -- but totally unjustifiable for Germany to be presented with a check for the cost of the damage caused by, for example, the German scorched-earth policy in which they systematically destroyed French coalmines and deliberately made the Somme valley region uninhabitable under Operation Alberich.
