Is war between Nato/USA and Russia/China/Brics imminent? World war 3?

[Ceasar]

I sadly can see this happening in the next ten years.

Appearantly a leaked document in France contained information about the French government asking French hospitals to prepare for 50k injured patients in 2026! Macron is mad he thinks he's Napoleon. Hopefully France get a new president soon!

Just for a bit of perspective, there's less Squaddies in the Army that could fill Wembley. Around 75,000 I think it is. My uncle who came out as a warrant officer told me that and now does telecoms procurement work himself.

I worked at the MoD in weapons procurement at the time of the first Gulf War.
Immediately afterwards our project manager was the Colonel who had been CO of the Royal Engineers in that war. He said that experience had tought him that the british army was a one shot device in full on warfare. I imagine tht it has got worse since then.

The British Armed Forces were significantly larger in 1970, with approximately 373,000 full-time equivalent personnel, compared to around 138,000 regular personnel in 2024, showing a decline of over 60%.

 

 

Correct, hence why I agree with your 'decimated' statement.

We have plenty of young men of fighting age available if war breaks out, I’m just not sure what side they’d be on

I am. 100% not ours.

We haven't fucking got an Armed Forces anymore.

Bullshit

Been decimated for years.

Unfortunately, NOT bullshit

 

 

Ok, slight exaggeration I admit, but it isn't anywhere like it once was, which I would class as a significant Armed Forces.

About time the World had another good clear out anyway.

First on the list should be all Spurs (not to be confused with all Jews), Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, Millwall, Sheffield United Fans.

I think it is more than likely, and thus have been wearing combat trousers everyday* in anticipation.

*Different ones each day obviously. Cleanliness will for sure be a key factor in achieving ultimate victory.

This is relevant.

If we go on a run and it looks like we could seriously barge, long term, onto the top table, I wouldn't put it past the authorities to start a war, just to fuck us up.

Nasty

[honky cat]

Same as it ever was

​​​​​​During most of the 80" s we were on the brink of nuclear war

[Mike Oxsaw]

If there is, there will be very little "Bang! Bang! Shoot 'em up" activity. It will be mostly fought on the internet and communications systems.

Why waste bombs & missiles when you can disrupt/incapacitate a country remotely due to it's reliance on the internet and penny-pinchers across the board not investing in protection/fall-back systems?

British forces should flat out refuse to get involved in any war in Eastern Europe or the Middle East.

[MaryMillingtonsGhost]

J'espère que non.

[Mex Martillo]

It's a worry.
Why do we have these idiots leading such powerful countries, when most of their populations think they're stupid cunts. Also it's always right wing ego fucked wankers. 

[zebthecat]

No

[Massive Attack]

No. The end.
