Over the last 4-5 years, there’s been a certain contingent of social media influencers warning that WW3 was coming. They went into really high gear around Iran.

WW3 proved rather underwhelming.

The Russia-Ukraine war wasn’t WW3. It was WW1 with drones. The 12-day war, as some are calling it, between Israel and Iran, with a rapid strike by the United States, wasn’t WW3 either. Had Iran developed and deployed nuclear weapons, it would have been a horrific catastrophe, but still would not have been WW3.

If there is a WW3 to happen, it would be a showdown between America and China (not America and Russia, which is a spent force or America and Iran, our war with Islam is in a very different and much more dangerous category) and the CCP has chosen to play a different kind of game, stabbing us in the back, rather than attacking from the front.

Be wary of folks predicting WW3. Unfortunately we have bigger problems than WW3.
