I totally agree Arioch. This would also activate the draft, since we don't have nearly the forces needed to fight this kind of war. I'm afraid if this war does happen, it will be the first introduction to the nuclear bomb. Many countries have them, and this is the only reason why they do have them.
If it breaks out into another "world war", some countires WILL be destroyed, I'm not talking about a broken germany in WW2, or a wrecked Iraq of today, I'm talking about the total destruction of a country(ies). This could be the beginning to the end for some of us, since the majority of us will be going to war, no matter what age/sex you are.
