Are we living in a safer world where terrorists are cowed and beaten, too scared of US retribution to commit atrocities? Or is Dubya's "We're going to war so my friends can have more money and profits!" approach to this whole affair making the world a lot more dangerous?
Well...what do you think?

This is what the next world war 3 will be like.
In the years leading up to World War III, the former United States of America became more isolationistic. Terrorist attacks increased both in number and in severity worldwide. Although nobody was sure who was directly responsible, the cities of Tokyo, Mexico City, Seoul, Sao Paulo, Mumbai, Delhi, Washington, Los Angeles, and Tel Aviv no longer exist and cannot support life for another several thousand years. Thought to have existed on the eastern side of North America, New York once was once a bustling center of business and finance. Perhaps as many as 200 million people inhabited these once great cities.
After several Arab nations launched a coordinated offensive, Israel countered with massive nuclear strikes against Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, and Yemen. 300 million people died in the first ten minutes of the struggle, with another 200 million dying in the following weeks from radiation burns and lack of medical attention.
In the chaos, old enemies took the opportunity to settle scores. Pakistan and India launched nearly simultaneous attacks at one another, with all human habitation of Pakistan vanishing for the foreseeable millennia. India, thought to be once home to over a billion people, saw its population drop to a few tens of thousands in remote and isolated agricultural pockets.
Lacking a reliable delivery technology, North Korea detonated nuclear devices from barges moored in Japanese harbors. Many thought China destroyed Taiwan, which probably existed a few miles from their coast. Moscow disappeared, probably because of people from disputed territories taking advantage of the turmoil.
Opponents especially targeted religious capitals, with Jerusalem and Mecca vanishing forever beneath the brilliant sparkle of green glass that melted miles-wide holes in snow-swept wasteland even decades after the wars. Opposing religious groups attacked one another, the tremendous proliferation of hand held weapons totally overwhelming defenders on both sides.
As governmental infrastructure collapsed in the modernized nations of the world, an additional three billion people died over the next three years in the ensuing famine, descending temperatures, and rampant disease. Nations that depended heavily on imports for necessities, such as Britain and many in the Middle East had the heaviest losses in their populations.
In total, the world lost five of its seven billion inhabitants within a decade.

Will there be a world war 3 and what would it be like?
If anything things have worsened recently, with there being yet another beheading of an american citizen.
I believe the bible has things in it that do not make sence. Eg the old testiment. People living for hundreds of years and stuff. Fire in the sky and all that. The whole Moses thing. Why should we follow a religion we do not understand. The emergence of DNA has made sence of some of things in the bible. The more I read the more I am coming across Govenments pumping Inteligent people with information they think they want to hear. After watching things on tv about ancient cultures ie dating the spynx and the pyramids to 2500 bc. I was completly taken in. An ancient culture was placing the Time and date of a catalasmic event. The same event that made Atlantis disapear. Sodam and Gamora. Then I read the book the Stargate conspiracy. And found that Hancock and Beval were payed by the cia to make this theory widespread. I said No they must be right They had charts that link up to the star sirius b. Then I decided I would find out more about this. It turnes out that a Mystic in the 30's called EdgAR Caycee made prophacies about the Pyramids and the star Sirius. B. His teaching lead back to the Freemasons. Which he was a member of. Then I also found out that Hancock and Baval were also members. Spreading the word of the Freemasons. As a female I can not get a hold of anything from the freemasons as yet. I do believe we are being made to believe the (Gods) came from Sirius B. What is going on?. That I am not sure but I will keep searching. I was realy sucked into this,as I am sure other people would have been.

Fair enough. Out of interest, DO you believe in any of the theories you've mentioned?

Reading conspiracy theories and believing conspiracies is two different things. Cristianity started as a conspiracy theory. As did every other religion. Reading these books is not the same as believing. I find because family is one religion. You are automatically brought up to believe that. If someone questions that belief they are classed as evil. You ask a christian to read the Koran and they would say Blasfeme. The same goes for Muslims and Jews. It says In all holy books that you must obey one god. Isn't there only one god. So from the time the bible and the Koran date, Racisim is already been sown. As I have been finding out. Thats the reason I an agnostic. Until I find a religion with no racism and judgement I will keep looking.

Yup. There's nothing sadder than a conspiracy theorist who's had his pet theory debunked. They're like kids who've been told they have to stop playing with their favourite toys.
