WW III has started. The beginning of the end of the world as we knew it.
I dont know about WWIII but it usually takes time to get a a true perspective on what’s going on. There are a number of historians who say that there was no WWI or WWII, but one larger war that lasted from around 1914 to 1991. It started with WWI and the assassination of the archduke and it ended with the dissolution of the USSR. WWI, WWII, the Cold War, were all part of the larger 77 year struggle.
The same could be happening here. It could be years before we really sort everything out.
