can we REALLY trust Russia, Germany or France in the global war on terror?

I think the only thing we can REALLY trust is GWB to create enemies and go to war when not needed (no link between Irak and Bin Laden/terrorism- there are links now thanks to the invasion).

I don't today's average citizen is as concerned about an attack as they were during the cold war.  But the Russians had such a massive army, the threat of a wide scale invasion seemed plausible.  With terrorists, the attacks are usually held to a small area.  \n\nThat's just my speculation.  You don't see people really preparing for terrorist attacks like they did during the cold war.  Our children are not being taught it in school.

The War on terror is just another in a long line of fake conflicts that benefit the Military Industrial Complex. After world war two made so much money for the war machine they decided to manufacture consent for never ending war. The Cold War, Korea, Viet-Nam, Grenada, Panama, Iraq, Kosavo, The Fascist Coups in South America that the U.S. backed. That's right the U.S. backed fascists. All of these things benefited the elites that run the Five Sided Fistagon and the government.

well lets see from who's stand point from ours could have been the end of any of the wars or when the Berlin war came down. So in Germany and Europe it could have been the same. from Ben la din stand point the greatest news happened on 9-11 when his terrorist struck a blow to the United States and put fear into us.  To blacks when slavery was abolished.  To South African when partied was abolished.  To Iraqi's when Saddam was on the run and of course now that's a joke.  To to days soldiers when we win the war of terrorist. To Russian winning the space war back in the 60's  So you get the picture who, where, and your beliefs may give you a different answer.

other countries haven't said they were going to bring terror to our land

I think we are unchartered waters on this one.  We have never fought an enemy of this nature before so where to draw the line and how far to take it will depend on the world's willingness to stop the terror attacks.  As we saw with Spain, not all countries view this war the same.  But, unless there is a concerted effort on the part of all governments that value freedom to destroy the terrorists throughout the world we will never end this.  Afghanistan and Iraq are the tip of the iceberg.  The Islamic terrorists, and make no mistake that that is who this war is directed at, have the ability to travel all over the world and use the tools of cowards to continue their jihad.  Since we are not fighting a standing army, and I doubt that our estimates of people involved in terrorist oganizations is close to accurate, we cannot know when we "get them all".  The ultimate solution will have to come from a coalition of world governments being willing to root out these organizations on their soil and drive them into a corner where they are considered, and please forgive the use of the term, lepers.  Once they are seen as un-touchable (in that no one wants to touch them or allow them safe haven) then we can talk about drawing lines.

These flights don't just fly over they stop at various bases and meet with our troops and inspect facilities for various treaty obligations and we do the same the Russians won't get home until November 19. Our people did there inspection in October. This is nothing to worry about in fact you should be glad as this system lowers the level of mistrust between the USA and Russia.

Absolutely none at all, not that small problems like that have stopped them trying to assassinate foreign leaders,  de-stabalize small countries economies, cause wars, fund wars, fund terrorist groups just because they exist in a country where the government are friendly with anyone they dont like.\n\nThen they wonder why they are the No1 terrorist target on the planet. What worries me more is that President Bliar follows him like a lapdog all the time.

I think England has the strongest most powerful military, but France also has a nuclear weapon.\n\nGerman economy has a stronger GDP.\n\nSo there isn't a real definate answer. But if you had to tie me to one Id say Germany cause of their economy and the fact that they have allies enough where if they were attacked again by Russia they'd fight em off.

It is entirely possible. Iran, China, Cuba, Russia, France, Isreal, US, GB, Venezuela, rogue terrorists, Korea. Heck yeah... gonna be tough for quite a while!

Most definitely, though now with the re-awakening of the attention on North Korea, I'm undecided who will get blamed for our next false-flag attack.  Iran used to be the obvious choice, but now I'm torn.\n\n“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.” - Joseph Goebbels, Nazi Propoganda expert

No.  These are the primary governments that ensured the safety of the world during WWII.  While other governments did half-measures, these stood up, lost an entire generation of their young blood to stop the total loss of freedom for self-government.   Perhaps after this round against terrorism, we should count the countries that stood up and kick a couple off the UN SC.

I believe that we may not have diplomatic relations with some of these countries. This means we may not recognize their governments as legitimate.

We are always facing the possibility of WWIII. They have been ready for that reality since the last world war. The problem is that the world has been at war with itself for centuries. Its only when it happens to you that you take notice. Power and greed are the players and the sides are whoever has the most or the illusion of the most power. But you know what is said about the big guys...The harder they will fall. Boom baby.

This is not a very smart question to be asking given the War on Terrorism we are involved in around the world.  There are at least 6 Nuclear Powers in the world that I know of, the US, UK, Russia, Israel, China, and France, nations which have or are capable right now in building and delivering by missile or briefcase, to a designated target.  There are at least 5 more working hard to enrich uranium to build their bomb, having already obtained a delivery system. Our government is very jittery and gets very suspicious of people who ask the kinds of questions you did.  If you want people knocking on the door at home, your doing a fine job of attracting the kind of attention and scrutiny you do not want, trust me.  I am one of those people who watched out for people like you before I retired.  Do yourself a favor and find a new interest.

Some people believe we are already involved in World War III.  It is known as "the war on terror".  I believe this is a sort of World War.  Believe that or not, if it gets much bigger, it definately will be World War III.
