Due to current geopolitical events I decided not to buy a Lamborghini but will go for this one instead. Only $90-100 Million more.

SEOUL (Reuters) - North Korea will immediately suspend nuclear and missile tests and scrap its nuclear test site and instead pursue economic growth and peace, the North’s state media said on Saturday, ahead of planned summits with South Korea and the United States.
WWIII Panic is over.

- little rocket man has an evil plan
to overrule the entire worldsted - Shouldn’t this go in the peace thread?HijoDMaite
- can't tell if this is /s or not ... Syria would likely be the flashpoint for WWIII, not NKcolin_s
- wait and seeutopian
- well, he can say that, but actions are going to be....shapesalad
- He knows Trump needs this and negotiate a deal to keep in power and get access to the world's economy.Salarrue
- russia gave him the pee pee tape?shapesalad
- they still have nukes. all they said is they won't test them anymore.Gnash
- they don't NEED to test them anymore because they're workingGnash

US intel suspects Iranian cruise missiles hit Saudi oil facilities from Iraq base
- Oh, is that where the weapons of mass destruction were?zarkonite
- ?Krassy
- They already changed their story, now they are saying it was launched from Iran.yuekit
- https://www.zerohedg…yuekit
- I'm sure Saudi Arabia will now release photos of the drone operator from his bedroom as well.utopian
- let them work it out for themselves.Gnash
- It's sad that despite how transparent this all is - how everybody can see what's happening, we'll eventually go to war anyway. Such bullshit.MondoMorphic
- Er, that blew up an oil refinery and only partially exploded? Seems legit.slappy
- The drones, impressive as they are, would've only carried small warheads, designed to prick facilities and set them alight.Nairn
- There's no reason they would've got totally annihilated. Also, I thin some crashed short of their targets.Nairn
- I don't think there's any particular hunger to go to war with Iran - it's a very hard country to go to anything like a full-scale war with. Iran knows this.Nairn
- So instead we have all this cold-war-like proxy bullshit going on. I don't think there's a need for the West to be opaque on Iran. Iran are actually cunts too.Nairn
- (the gov't - not the people. I've not met many, but the Iranians I have met have been invariably lovely).Nairn
- </deathboy mastursplurge>Nairn
- yup, iran is similar in terrain to afganistan. hard to fight in the mountains. they can't carpet bomb like they did in iraq._niko

john bolton's gotta be so pissed that we're about to go to war with iran the week after he gets fired

- Israel and Pakistan are the one's i'd traditionally fear most but with all the talk of nuking hurricanes the US is way in front!_niko
- surprising that Japan doesn't have nuclear weaponsKrassy
- Same with GermanyKrassy
- Both countries have industrial infrastructure and research programmes in place which would mean they could have nukes in fuck-all time, if they needed to pivot.Nairn
- The two biggest flash points I see here aren't 'East v.s West', they're India vs. Pakistan and Russia vs. China.Nairn
- ...or, if Brexit goes really far South, UK vs. France.Nairn
- *Krassy as a result of WW2, the USA prevented both Japan & Germany the ability to use nukes - as well the USA has mandatory military bases in those countriesbliznutty
- It'll be UK vs UK after Brexit, just a big nuclear suicide.PhanLo
- @Naim "Russia vs. China" explain?Krassy
- @Naim "UK vs. France" explain?Krassy
- @bliznutty oh, I seeKrassy
- How the hell does Pakistan have nuclear weapons? I know as much that it's too keep India & Pakistan away from attacking each other, but still...??Krassy
- @krassy - UK vs. France was a joke; Russia vs. China's to do with resource, land and ego. There's a lot of Russia north of China that it would probably like.Nairn
- China is in the ascendant, Russia descendant. There's more of a global prestige and power-play there than between China and US.Nairn
- @Naim good one about UK v FranceKrassy
- Goddam, Francejmckinno
- Israel has about 400 warheads.Beeswax
- @Beeswax Practically, Israel has a as many nukes as the US ;-)Krassy
- Israel has 4 nukes.
Who fucking knows?Nairn - What I meant, is that with US' support, US' nukes are Israel's nukesKrassy
- I've often thought that the best thing to do would be to put smuggle nukes and put them in high rises in each target city. Why bother with ICBMs?Nairn
- Out nucular is tippy-top, tippy tip top I tell you. The man man say so.monospaced
- Why bother with smuggling nukes when you have novichok?shaft
- Deterrence theoryBennn
- there is NO way China only has 280.. more like 28000autoflavour
- but realistically, with such a massive misbalance between US/Russia and everyone else, why do they even bother?autoflavour
- Who are the gatekeepers of these weapons? They are the world’s most important people I think._niko
- @_niko Trump, Putin, Xi, Kim, Bojo - you know, all good honorable menKrassy
- yeah but I mean the REAL gatekeepers, the ones preventing Trump, Putin, Xi, Bojo et al from nuking hurricanes and each other ;)_niko
- let's hope the REAL gatekeepers have hearts & souls and love their own children tooKrassy
- the real problems are new hypersonic rockets that no one can take town for now. russia has this technologie and china too.api

- Apparently tanker may have exploded near two Saudi desalination plants. Also there's an oil embargo on Iran, that ship shouldn't be there.IRNlun6

Totally forgot we were going to war with Iran 6 months ago. Lol

- I listen just for fear porn entertainment. Don’t agree with them or some of their opinions.NBQ00
- Why do we need this and why do we need it now?grafician
- but yes, considering the global pandemic and the consequences, we might see some civil unrest in many countriesgrafician
- We don’t need this. Just like all the other posts here it’s just some opinions to look at and mostly entertainment.NBQ00

China fires missiles in South China Sea 'in warning to US' after plane entered no-fly zone
https://www.express.co.uk/news/w…
- this is fluff.Nairn
- because?Krassy
- it's a local fire play within an essentially international zone. You don't think the US does this sort of shit all the time?Nairn
- Meh. This thread was started 14 years ago, don't think this will change anything.Maaku
- @Naim the problem is that China does NOT want it to be considered an international zone. Lots at stake here. South China Sea is a massive conflict!Krassy
- If Trump gets re-elected, all bets are off...civil war, etc. He'll surely feel emboldened to just push buttons.formed
- Yeah, I get that, Krassy - the entiriety of SE Asia gets that - I'm just saying this event is fluff in context of prodding WW3.Nairn
- Shit's been bubbling for years. Remember this, from 2001?
https://en.wikipedia…Nairn - @Naim yes, I get all that too, but just because it's been going on for a long time, actions like the current ones aren't "fluff" but instead further escalationKrassy

Russia-Ukraine border crisis: World War will begin in a month, warns military analyst: https://www.wionews.com/world/ru…
- Yes! Just what we need to get us out of the coming super-depressionPhanLo
- Let's print loads of money, then find a way to absorb that to avoid inflation... with a war.shapesalad
- Nothing will happen anyway. This thread was started 15 years ago, remember :)NBQ00
- Putin needs to show his balls for the upcoming elections and biden needs to defend the business of his son in Ukraine.milfhunter
- @milf 1. The Biden outrage has always been a desperate reach, it's pretty hamfisted attempt at muckraking at this point.garbage
- 2. Thinking that Putin feels he has any need to flex or that elections actually happen in Russia shows your ignorance of the situation.garbage
- He literally kills political rivals and journalists. He stole the Robert Kraft's Super Bowl ring and joked that he could kill somebody with it.garbage
- Dude literally runs the jewels. He's not scared about election. The RU is not a democracy.garbage

Russia & China VS Europe & North America
- Vs Australia & New Zealand VS South America & AntarcticaNBQ00
- Azores looks increasingly attractive.shapesalad
- It would be a true world war with India, Turkey, Japan, Korea, a bunch of other Asian countries, etc all fighting with the "Allied" forces.MondoMorphic
- its funny how many theoretical wars can be won by just blowing up the US. no wonder you guys are such a big fan of doomsday deviceskingsteven
- needless to say if this war started i would be rounded up :Dkingsteven
- So, no oceania vs Eurasia vs eastasia?ArchitectofFate
- I'm pretty sure Orwell aligned the world like that just so he could cause outrage by casting England as an airport. but i guess he had a point.kingsteven
- more like the climate vs. humanity.neverscared
- North America vs North Americadrgs

world wars are likely over, though, right? i mean in a legitimate way if the superpowers ever actually decided to duke it out over world domination, that's just total annihilation ; i figure we'll continue on wars by proxy with perhaps some kind of "direct" confrontation by way of iran (i.e., US invasion for claims of WMD violations) or israel (like they'll start some shit and get the us involved by default).
I also couldn't see the USA going to war and having that many people get in line to go fight. Like, anywhere, for some time... after the past year/s, I don't see some bullshit world police scenario getting popular support or new enlists.
that being said, it must be a fun time to be an enemy of the US right now because the country is rife with opportunity for foreign powers to just prod at it, a wounded animal hiding under a rock.
- listening to NPR right now, "is pres. biden ready to go to war with iran over the bomb?" (nervous laughter)colin_s
- Your country's not particularly wounded, just suffering the after effects of four years of international embarrassment.Nairn
- Yuval Noah Harari has predicted the end of world war in his books https://en.wikipedia…nb
- Isn't this just describing how it's worked for the past 75 years? All the weapons build up and smaller conflicts are basically to change the balance of power,yuekit
- which still does overwhelmingly favor the USA at this point. China is the big threat but they have one overseas military base, USA has 800.yuekit
