Is this WW3?

[Fengzi]

Hey, I've seen Commies drinking water. Never seen any drinking Vodka. I did get pretty hammered with a Commie once drinking some exceptionally foul alcohol called Mao Tai though, but that's a story for another thread

Anyhow...No. This isn't the start of WWIII. Maybe the start of a Middle East war but not WWIII. If we had a world war everytime the Jews and Arabs started shooting at each other we'd be up to what? WWVI? WWVII? Maybe more?

I don't believe we're seeing WW3 or any fulfillment of any holy book. People have been getting scared for thousands of years everytime a bunch of events happen that match up with that some holy book said, but over thousands of years this kind of shit is just innevitably going to happen. Now if the bible or talmud or whoever said "on January 20th, 2001, George Bush will be elected president of the world's superpower", then I'd be impressed.

It's not World War III. It's just the same pointless Middle East turmoil that's been going on for a loooooong time. You know, besides the whole religion thing, the Arabs and the Jews aren't really that different. Their cultures and languages are closely related to each other historically. And even their religions aren't too different since they're pretty much all monotheists.

Here's Stephen Colbert's take on this (the first video clip on the page). Man I love Stephen Colbert. He cracks me up like a club striking a baby seal's skull.

Start of World War III? ...that can't happen, until France surrenders first.

This is the key:
Lebanon is currently in violation of Resolution 1559 over its refusal to disband the military wing of Hezbollah.

If they were taking care of buisiness in the first place there would have been no kidnapped troops, no bombs, etc..............

Have a good one!:thumbsup:

This explained what you meant in the other thread...I still think its sad about all those orphaned children..injured,hungry,no parents,no shelter etc..

I love that

I hate when people say that all of France just gave up and surrendered in the World Wars. Sure, their government and military gave up because they were overpowered, but the spirit of resistance burned strong in the hearts of the people. When you imply that they were all just pussies who couldn't fight or didn't want to fight you are spitting on the graves of all the courageous French men and women who risked their lives to strike against the invading oppressors in whatever way they could right up until the end. It's like saying black people are pussies because they tolerated slavery for so long.
