Looking at the world right now, it seems World War 3 should start anytime within the next 10 years or less. I really think World War 3 will be over before 2024.
The question is, will there be another world war after that. I think so.
I think World War 3 should last less than 2 years. Cause of the weapons of mass destruction involved. It cant be a 7 year war like world war 2.
I think the havoc ww3 will cause, people across the world wont want another world war again. This will lead to a NEW WORLD ORDER. People across the world will come together, nations will form alliances, nations will join into unions, eventually with a UN like World Council overseeing them. People will never want a war like that again.
It may last several years, maybe a decade or even two to three decades but sooner or later, religious differences, cultural differences, racial differences, inequality between rich and poor as well as WHO CONTROLS THE OIL, as well as TERRORISM will eventually cause nations and people to rise against eachother and the people wont listen to the World Council or Union of that time and eventually the World Union will collapse and there will be a World War 4 with weapons that will make the weapons of today look mild.
This world war 4 will be a monster of a war. People will realize that a World Union wont work and it will be a battle for one CULTURE, one NATION or one RELIGION to win the world over and to fry and nuke every other nation, culture or religious creed that does not agree.
World War 4 - the battle for who (which nation - politically, religiously, culturally) takes all world control and fries the remainder of the world.
Who wins World War 4 will win the planet. A century after World War 4, the whole world will have one CULTURE.
World War 5 and all wars after that will be about finance, greed and power and not about religion, culture, oil or race. Those wars from world war 5 onwards will be basic human nature GREED about positions, money and resources of that future digital religionless, oilless, paper moneyless, digital virtual money world with one free for all culture that uses solar and GREEN energy.
No amount of scientific advancement will stop war, because GREED causes war. So even without religion, countries with boarders, virtual money, doesnt matter, cause GREED will cause World Wars 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, on and on and on.
