100 years of peace before WWI?

Not sure if that is accurate.

The only way to avoid war would be a global economic reset. And no one is going to do that.

I guess the author of this doesn’t consider the Franco-Prussian War a war.

You're right: It ain't happening. As I've tried elaborating in another thread, the US used to be the bulwark for stability and actions of our government the past decade or longer have made us weak in the world. We're leaderless, have gutted our military (of actual fighting leaders), leave a trail of destruction in our wake (including the latest narcissist's 'arab spring' actions) and compromise many alliances...all while engaging policies that make us weaker in the face of emerging power brokers & regional unrest.

He's not entirely accurate, but hits the nail on the head. The 'reset' will be a reshuffling of the global power structure and, imho, that will come in the form of war. Unfortunately, this reckless administration is promoting that outcome with its weak posture, policies & actions. The unilateral act of deploying US forces into a foreign theater as some bulwark in the wake of failed policies in some desperate manifestation of casus belli is more analogous to throwing fuel on the fire than defensively 'fighting a wildfire'...

100 years of peace? What about that little dust up called the American Civil War! Still, I too see the signs and hear the coming hoofbeats of the four horsemen. War is coming—WW III -—This time the good guys may not win. It will be like a giant purging of the CP, MultiCulturalist, Socialist, Crap, Maybe a blast of bitter cold air will bring forth a better world. It will solve the overpopulation problem. WW II took 6.5% of the world’s people, this may take 15% at least.
