"The civilized world must win WW IV/the Final Crusade and destroy Jihadism! "
I think I missed WWIII?
many people consider the cold war to have been WW3
so this would be WW4.
World War III, the not so cold war started before WWII was over when Stalin took over most of eastern Europe and got a lot of Asia divided into N and S.
The first hot out break was the Korean War, followed by the Viet Nam War and Desert Storm I when the Russian ally Iraq was defeated.
About 40 million of us served in those conflicts and those from the Berlin airlift to the Cuban Crisis to dozens of other hot spots.
World War III ended after President Reagan drove the USSR into bankruptcy.
World War IV began when the Jihadists took over our embassy and Jimmy Carter allowed them to get away with that and expelling the Shah. The World War IV and the current Crusade started then.
