<p>@MosbyMarion: I was actually proposing that if China wished to not that they ever will, attack America with “CBN” weapons through their exports they send to America. For instances the Chinese milk Scandal (see link below for more information) on a much larger scale with more virulent chemicals.</p>

<p>^^ Someone doesn’t understand the irrationality of war. </p>
<p>WW2 started because germany took back some land it used to have, and then france and britain went ape****. (Common man’s history)</p>
<p>WW1 was started because of the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife by the Serbian Black Hand terrorists in Sarajevo on June 28, 1914. Austria delivered a ridiculous ultimatum to Serbia, and surprisingly Serbia accepted most of it’s points, but Austria still invaded because not “all” of it’s stupid points were met.</p>
<p>Does the war in the middle east, not seem irrational to you?</p>
<p>The thing is in war, my good boy, the effect of the reason holds no weight. You’re in the spur of the moment, and you merely try to pull a reason out, so that people will side with you. </p>
<p>Do you not understand how fights start? People get angry, and don’t think about the effects (Getting hurt/Suspension). It’s the spur of the moment, and like the nike logo says, “They just do it”. </p>

<p>nom nom nom</p>
<p>EITHER OR, lets just try not to think about this as since most young men on here would probably be drafted if we got into another war…</p>
<p>I don’t know about you but I don’t want to go to war…</p>

<p>Actually Daxlo5 ww1 had much more significant causes and Franz ferdinands death was solely a catalyst in giving germany the chance to bribe one of its secret allies to create a small war that would actually escalate to a world wide conflict through secret alliances forcing a large portion of the worlds nations to join the conflict. Germany’s imperialistic ideas were to create a war between two nations and then indirectly join the war by come to the aid of their Allie , which they hoped would make them seem to be the good guys while they also hoped to distract other global super powers like america by hopefully involving them in a war with Mexico. But as the plan of action was in process, altercations such as the interception of the Zimmerman telegraph actually turned the tide of war against them. If not for this slip up in communications, germany could have possibly followed through with its plans they had devised most likely way before arch dukes death, and if anything the war was initially far from irrational to these leaders. Further more this ww2 “common man history” was much more than a irrational move by an imperialistic nation. One should know that if America and Woodrow Wilson would have created a much different solution to conclude the end world war 1 and decided not to not created the league of nations which ultimately failed ww2 could have possibly been avoidable. Wilson’s apparent plan for peace brought massive economic downturn in germany and weakened national morale to the point that they actually let a maniac “Hitler” take control of the nation who supported the growth of militarism and took advantage of his complete authority to regain the land that in essence was germanies and in turn caused another global conflict. Which had theoretically been in the making ever since germany was forced to pay back war debts from wilsons 14 points and the treaty of versailles that was created around his plan for big time american business men to profit from by loaning germany the money with long term interest attached. So to summarize Wilson forced economic devastation in germany, along with a new alliance system among the allies of WW1 that led to hitlers rise, for the sole purposes that he thought he could help his fellow businessmen in america while hopefully pushing america into a position of global super power. Neither of these wars were truly created by irrational decisions without a true reason, but actually were planned with great detail by power hungry leaders hoping to gain economic prosperity. If you remember the saying" money makes the world go round" I believe that it is true in every aspect of life.</p>
<p>Do you know what a paragraph is?</p>
<p>Actually my computer is off, and im on a smart phone and when I submitted it all went into 1 paragraph haha :)</p>
<p>A better question would be “Would the US win if it was invaded by Libya?”</p>
<p>Libya is to weak to even invade the US. America defeated you guys before, and they will do it again.</p>
<p>Shut up gaddafi. Just give us your damn oil.</p>
<p><em>Here is a updated version of my previous post.</em> - Sorry its so long.</p>
<p>Good post Daxlo5 while I agree with you that fear can cause irrational decisions and behaviorhowever I think that there was much deeper causes to both WW1 and WW2.</p>
<pre><code> WW1 had much more significant causes and Franz ferdinands death was solely a catalyst in giving germany the chance to bribe one of its secret allies to create a small war that would actually escalate to a world wide conflict through secret alliances forcing a large portion of the worlds nations to join the conflict.

<p>^ i see someone’s been reading. I’ve always been of a fan of fat old white starting wars for a profit. The same could be said about Vietnam. The war wasn’t meant to be won, but merely sustained because back then nothing jump started your economy like a war.</p>
<p>Yea self-studying for AP U.S. and World history exams next month helps haha :)</p>

<p>Lol, give it 5-10 years and we’ll be drafted for WWIII. I wonder if Russia would side with the US during a conflict with Asian Axis of Evil (China, NK, India, Pakistan).</p>
<p>Not the grammar nazis, that’s for sure.</p>
<p>Ok, I think that military expenditures help, but shouldn’t be a deciding factor in our discussion right now. I agree that the U.S. military/navy/ air force are more advanced than the Chinese’s. Once the Chinese invade, Japan and South Korea could easily attack China. With these attacks, political dissidents rise out, stir the population into revolt. They then topple the government. The Taiwanese government moves in and takes over the mainland. Game over. Debt over.</p>
<p>
Yeah, those four are totally going to unite.</p>
