Actually, we are already in WWIV, and we have already had a nuclear world war.\n\nLet me explain...\n\nWWII was ended with nuclear bombs being dropped on Japan.  That was the 'nuclear war'.\n\nWWIII was the 'cold war', which was primarily a financial war, won by the USA when the USSR went bankrupt trying to keep up in the nuclear arms race.\n\nWWIV is the 'war of terrorism', not the 'war on terrorism', and the US has been involved since the first bombing of the World Trade Center towers on February 26, 1993.  Ever increasingly frequent and violent acts against the US and Allies have been going on ever since.  Clinton refused to acknowledge that we were at war, and believed that 'legal action' would be sufficient to stop terrorism.  This was a grave miscalculation on his part, which led directly to the events of 9/11/2001.  President Bush has at least moved the battlefield to foreign soil (for the time being).  \n\nWhy call it WWIV?  Because the vast majority of governments in the world are ideologically on one side or the other with the combatants.  Also, there is worldwide infiltration of terrorist organizations, and there are economic impacts to world energy supply.  No one on the face of the earth is completely exempt from the results of this conflict.  This makes it a WW.\n\nPart of the problem in the US right now is that half of the politicians believe the terrorists are the enemy, and the other half believe the Republicans are the enemy.  Just listen to the words of Sadam Hussein, or Al Zarkawi.  They sound just like the Democrats talking about Bush.\n\nThe rest of the problem is with the Media, who beleives it is ther responsibility to report things in a way that makes the US Government look bad under any circumstance.   There is so much good going on in Iraq, yet the media is talking about a civil war.  More people die in violent acts on a daily basis in the US than in Iraq.  The per capita murder rate in Washington DC is higher than the death rate in combat in Iraq.  It is safer to be depolyed to Iraq than to live in Washington DC.\n\nClose our borders to Illegal immigrants NOW.  Let them in legally, and according to our laws, as all other waves of immigrants in the past have done...

God bless you too. I agree with you 100%. The problem is, it isnt going to happen. Then we would be as bad as them. Wholesale killing cant be the answer. We have to do it right, but I'll tell you what, the thought of a few B-52's tossing some tactical nukes  does make me smile.

NO.\nDo you think only the U.S. has nuclear weapons?\nSuch dangerous and irresponsible action would only make\nnon-American world leaders more nervous than Bush has already made them-and many of them also have control of nukes.\n As well,it's only a matter of time before it's possible before some terrorist group has the capacity to make or\nacquire a nuclear device,and I'm sure what you propose would not only accelerate the process but make the most deadly form of retaliation there is inevitable. The world's\nchanged a lot since Hiroshima.\n There has to be another way to handle the Middle East,more\nfinesse than that is required.

What scares me worse is that our country seems to be unable and unwilling to do the work needed to find alternatives to oil.  We are unable to change our lifestyle because we seem to feel it is owed to us.  You will not see anyone in Europe driving a Hummer, or any SUV.  They  have always been more conservation minded.

Mmm it’s hard to accept this fact, but it's true. The worst of this situation is that is too late to stop this process, and there's nothing we can do. The key for the success in the US was the relation of respect that we had with God and humanity, but at this time the US only cares about wars. Sadly, we'll have to accept the idea that US will collapse sooner or later, and that's when we will realize that we are not alone in this world, because there's others countries and we have to learn how to live together. If Empires like Roman fell down, why the US Empire had to be this exception? This is the hard reality. I just can’t assure you how long will this process take, but it’s for sure that it’ll happen, someday, somehow.

I will repeat what I said to someone else:\nIt's interesting to me that the threat to the world is Bush, when a KNOWN terrorist and KNOWN terrorism-supporting nation is preparing a nuclear weapon.  Get a reality check, why don't you?

I always had dreams like that when I was a kid.  Probably because that was one of my greatest fears.  It is probably one of your fears too, especially because after 9/11 they were always talking about the possibility of terrorists accessing nuclear power plants.  Can you move?  I would if I was you, just in case.  But I really think it is more about what your fears are than any kind of ESP thing.

i'm really scared by intolerance and how it is masked as self defence.  It scares me how the USA can get away with awful things just coz they are the USA and I strongly believe that in the future, historians will look back at the Bush administration in a similar light to other fascist dictators.  It's weird how people who are in the thick of it at the time can never see it.  I think that the Bush administration (in a similar way to the Nazis) have used moral panic very effectively.

I think the the Israeli Government is scared to death that the Democrats are taking over in the US, and that will lead to less support for them. Israel is a very small island in a sea of nations that want it destroyed and will stop at nothing to accomplish their goals. The Democrats are scaring me in this same regard.\n\nLet's not forget that Israel has nukes. We don't know how many and where they have them, but they do. They also have f_15 eagles to deliver them. If Iran develops a nuke, they will either use it themselves or give it to Hezbollah to deliver in a van or something, and if they set one off in Israel, Isreal will retaliate.\n\nIsrael knows that they can't hit a ghost so they will nuke Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia and who knows how many others. The major portion of the world's oil supply will evaporate. Russia and China will respons, and some of their weapons will also be aimed at the USA. We would be forced to respond with nukes of our own, and we have a load of them. On top of that, the debris from the explosions will throw so much dust in the air that it would almost certainly create a nuclear winter that will destroy most of the plant and animal life on the planet. That will be the end of us all.\n\nThat's why I can't vote for a Democrat.

For the most part, I'm okay with nuclear power.  It tends to be clean, and is actually very safe when the guidelines are followed and standards are met.  My only fear is that guidelines and standards bow down to politics all too often.\n\nI think that, in general, we need to know a little about a lot.  As an example: I might not know everything about the engine of my car, but I know enough to recognize when there's a problem, and what that problem might be.

Not only that. The same sequence of warnings could happen for Iran also. These things happen as long as there is ground to believe US (and other nations of the nuclear club) are not fair in their demands when they themselves indulge in nuclear weapons. Something like saying "I am a thief and will steal whatever I can. But anything you steal is a crime and so don't do it"

The whole concern over Iran is that they have the means to build nukes and that scares the crap out of GWB. But starting a war with Iran could create more problems then it solves. We fear that Iran may use the nukes on us but if we start a war with them then they will definatly nuke us. We have nothing to fear as long as they have no ICBMs(Intercontinental Ballistic Missles)

Absolutely not going to happen.  We've signed treaties left and right saying we won't use nuclear force.  The US has absolutely bent the rules when it comes to foreign relations but they absolutely would not completely abandon them.  With that being said, I predict a high probability of them using force OTHER than nuclear force...

Fear would deter them from getting into such a conflict. And the US would have to ensure those countries their oil supply.

There is a fine line between nuclear energy and nuclear WEAPONS.  Energy will benefit everyone greatly until a meltdown of course.  However researching nuclear energy and experimenting with it leads to some bad people having volitile materials which COULD BE used for a dirty bomb or full out nuclear weapon.  To answer the 2nd part of the question.. what do you THINK the US will do to stop them?  We will warn them once, ask the UN and get denied, then take matters into our own hands.  I vote move to Canada.
