It is insane to think that WWIII will only be European & not result in horrific devastation on OUR COUNTRY.....assinine.....

All that has to happen is Iran float a barge into loaded with a nuclear weapon into New York harbor or a million other possibilities involving modern weaponry & we will suffer too!

ASSININE!

George Patton didn’t start the war......he finished it,
