Full title:WWIII WARNING Third World War would be ‘extremely lethal and fast’ US Army chiefs reveal as they discuss taking out Russia or China

Military bosses were taking part in a ‘future-of-the-Army’ panel in Washington

AMERICAN military bosses have confessed that World War 3 is “almost guaranteed” and will be “extremely lethal and fast.”

Speaking at a ‘future-of-the-Army’ panel at the Association of the U.S. Army in Washington, generals and other leading figures laid out their depressing forecasts for upcoming conflicts.

Smart weapons and artificial intelligence will dominate these ultra-violent wars between super-aggressive nation states.

According to a report by Defense One, Major General William Hix said: “A conventional conflict in the near future will be extremely lethal and fast, and we will not own the stopwatch.

“The speed of events are likely to strain our human abilities.

“The speed at which machines can make decisions in the far future is likely to challenge our ability to cope, demanding a new relationship between man and machine.”

Hix warned that the US is preparing for “violence on the scale that the U.S. Army has not seen since Korea” when over 30,000 American troops were slaughtered.

The General said that China and Russia are both developing huge militaries which are driven by new technologies.

Lt. General Joseph Anderson said America faces frightening threats “modern nation-states acting aggressively in militarised competition.”

He said: “Who does that sound like? Russia?”

Army Chief of Staff General Mark A. Milley added that war between nation states “is almost guaranteed”.

Miley warned that America’s enemies could end their superiority in the air which it has enjoyed since the Korean War in 1950 and stop its Naval forces through a mixture of anti-access and area-denial capabilities.

I have the DVDs and the soundtrack.

Countrycide is a creepy episode for even Torchwood but good.

Probably my favorite off the soundtrack and there is a lot of good stuff on it.

Can anyone believe this? It’s almost as if we were the old Soviet Union and Russia was the U.S. of the 80s.

The repeating pattern is this.

Trade wars
Currency wars
World wars

Lather, rinse, repeat.

Do you really believe that, in an all out nuclear war, target planners in the US, Russia, and China are going to leave THEM around to pick up the postwar pieces (along with Iran and North Korea)?

Not likely, especially when it is probably going to start over some sh... er, incident in the Middle East.

The hat trick will be to fight such a war between some combination of these powers (and their allies) and keep it from going nuclear. The US force structure is no longer large enough to fight both of them full on at the same time. (A problem that is not entirely Obama's fault.) So, whoever is not engaged will have a free hand to strengthen their geopolitical dominance regionally.

Personally, I think the Chinese would let the US and Russia go at it while they made very strategic moves to strengthen their political and military dominance in eastern and southeastern Asia. Taiwan, the disputed islands in the East China Sea, the South China Sea are likely targets for military action. India, Japan, Australia, and South Korea would probably dispute control of the Straits of Malacca and the Malay Archipelago. I don't think the Chinese would want the contest between the US and Russia to go nuclear because of the target list issue mentioned previously. Neither we nor the Russians are going to leave THEM around to pick up the postwar pieces either.

"About 500,000 have died in Syria so far, but that’s just the warm up act."

It's not just a "warm up act", but rather a continuation of a war between Sunni Muslims and Shiite Muslims that has been going on now for over 1,400 years. What makes this period in the age old Muslim war with one another a pending international disaster is that the Russians have entered the war on the side of Shiite (Iran) and the U.S. has sided with the Sunni (Saudi Arabia).

The open warfare is now taking place in Syria, but make no mistake about it, the war is between Shiite Iran and Sunni Saudi Arabia to determine which will be dominate in the Middle East.

The question is how far will Russia and the U.S. be drawn into this war before one or the other realizes they have nothing to gain and everything to lose by engaging in this war. The U.S. is in this war on the side of the Saudis simply because our recent Presidents have been bought and paid for by the Saudis, but why are the Russians there on Iran's side? Could their aim be to destroy the Saudi oil fields and remove Saudi oil from the international market leaving Russia with the world's largest developed oil resources?

We do indeed live in interesting times.

I understand what you mean, but when this war begins it won’t be just a war, it will be nuclear, and we all know what happens when that happens...so if you want to get burned alive, then I wish you all the best...but it’s not worth this to me or my family, thank you...

The goal is to destroy Israel. A world government led by Obama can’t happen unless Israel is taken off the world stage.

Captain Rhino @86

In a global nuclear war between the three superpowers, I suspect each superpower to be attacked, at least to some degree, by the other two.

Complicating the strategy are the other nuclear powers, especially India, Pakistan, and Israel.

I just started the first episode and I am a binge watcher. Unless WWIII starts I may be done by the weekend.

Apocalypse Now Redux was very strange. I was surprised at how much was left out of the original.

I am not suggesting I WANT that to happen. I don’t hate Russia or Russians. I don’t hate the Chinese.

I love my country, but I hate the people running it.

Then that is what you should have said, I don’t hate Russia, they haven’t done anything yet that I know of...they want ISIS (Barky and Hillary’s baby) to be wiped off the earth, so do we...

I really think that Russia is holding back to see if Trump is the next President, which he will be, and then we will gather and take ISIS out...

If that doesn’t happen, then watch Russia attack America and it will be all over...

Just one thing though -
Obama has given BILLION$ to Iran as well as a way to become a nuclear power.
How does that figure into your statement about alliances, enemies and future conflict?
*we all know that Obama is a friend of all of Islam, because he hates the USA, the enemy of my enemy is my friend..

I used to criticize him. I used to cuss him. Then I came to realize that he was the choice of a majority of those that voted in 2008 and 2012 making him the people's choice. That when I criticize or cuss him, I am criticising and cussing the people. I saw the light. I no longer criticize or cuss the bastard. Now I only call him what he is.

I’m expecting it by 20JAN2017. I actually have a bet with a friend on it and I’m pretty sure I’m going to win. But the bet is really about Trump and Hillary not becoming POTUS because WW3 will keep that from happening and Obama will become world tyrant.

But if it does not happen then I expect it to be no later the 9th of Av (1AUG2017) which is when the first and second Temples in Jerusalem were destroyed. It is also the date of when Jews were kicked out of Spain in 1492 (which is why Columbus left to sail the ocean blue.), Jews that were involved in the Bar Kokhba revolt against ancient Rome were slaughtered, and the beginning of WWI (Russia declared war on Germany) which actually concluded with WWII and the Holocaust.

2OCT2016 did start the End Times, but it also started the Jubilee Year. Many think it is supposed to end by this Yom Kippur but they are mistaken.

ALL debts that have piled up over the last 50 years (who knows how many trillions - actually at least one quadrillion dollars) will be paid in full. That is what the Jubilee year is all about - the freeing of slaves (because they owe debts), and debts will be forgiven, but also the mercies of God will become manifest in very obvious and miraculous ways.

2016/2017 and onward through the End Times, will promise to be a time, not just talked about by the prophets of yore, but by future generations for thousands of years to come.

And we are the ones who are the ones who are witnessing it first hand. We are the souls who will have that honor of living and evening dying through it. Make the most of it.
