The reasons for the outbreak of the third world war. Third World War. Prerequisites. Situation in Syria. ZIRP and NIRP are the new norm throughout the G8

To begin with, a postulate.

All civilizations on all planets go through the stage of great wars, which we call world wars, in a chronologically very narrow range of their development - when civilization begins to move from agrarianism to industry. That is, it stops feeding "from the ground" and builds a large-scale technosphere, massively coagulating into cities. We are interested in precisely the moment of the beginning of the demographic transition, when the rural population is still full, and it can be mobilized into multimillion armies, and the industry is already puffing with might and main, allowing us to make sufficiently productive instruments of murder that can bring the god of death multimillion "harvests"

The civilized world of our planet (the so-called "West") has already played out its world wars. The developed countries no longer have a mobilization potential for world wars, so we switched to special operations and hybrid wars.

The Third World is a different matter ...

Physicist Sergei Kapitsa, who used physical methods to study population and thereby made a significant contribution to the science of demography, once told me in a personal conversation:

I do not exclude that there will be a Third World War. But she will be within the Third World. Somewhere in the Middle East.

I mentioned the fact of a personal conversation not for the sake of bragging, but exclusively for those who read Kapitsa's works, but did not find this statement there. Maybe it is somewhere, but I personally did not come across it, and therefore I refer to my own ears.

A person who has been doing something for a long time begins to feel the material being studied - the fabric of his subject, how Tesla felt electricity, how Archimedes felt the mechanics. This is how Kapitsa felt the planet, or rather, the matter of its billion population. And it seems to me that he was not mistaken in his prophecy.

Because, in addition to Kapitsa, there are other people who are involved in population and its behavior on a large (temporal and quantitative) scale. For example, climatologist Vladimir Klimenko, about whom I once wrote a whole book. Corresponding member of the Academy of Sciences Klimenko studies the influence of climatic fluctuations on human history. And, in short, his conclusions are as follows: in an era of deteriorating climate, all hassle begins. Namely - empires grow stronger, great conquests are carried out. And in an era of improving climate, empires, on the contrary, fall apart, confusion and vacillation begin.

At the same time, one must clearly understand: climate fluctuations in one (cooling) or another (warming) direction lead to different consequences in different regions of the globe. Because the climate is a patchy phenomenon. For example, global warming, which we are now experiencing, in some places on the planet leads to an improvement in the climate. This is the case in Russia, for example, where the retreat of permafrost will give Russians new arable land the size of France. That is why we live in a crumbling empire ... Well, somewhere, on the contrary, there is a sharp deterioration in the climate due to drying up. This happens in arid zones. That is, in the Middle East. It smells like integration processes.

Did you know that in the last year alone, precipitation in Iran has decreased by 20%? Two thirds (!) Of Iranian cities and towns suffer from catastrophic water shortages. Thousands of villages live on imported water.

The once deep and wide river of the Iranian highlands Zayanderud, which provided water for hundreds of thousands of people, has ceased to exist at the moment. She's completely dry! And the largest lake Urmia has lost 95% of its water reserves over the past twenty years. This resembles the tragedy with our Aral Sea. The people who served there in the Central Asian Shipping Company are still alive. And now the Aral Sea is gone, and huge ships lie on the dried-up bottom whitewashed with salt ...

Today in Iran, a water disaster is regarded as danger number 1, overtaking even such an enemy as Israel. And the UN agrees with this opinion of the Iranian establishment, because all over Iran villages and cities are turning into a desert. If it goes on like this (and it goes on like this), 70% of the inhabitants of the Iranian Highlands will be forced to leave it, since it will become simply impossible to live in this desert. And what are 70% of Iranians?

That's 60 million people - just for a minute. Where should they go?

And this is happening not only in Iran. Pakistan. Syria, Jordan, Egypt ... Egypt, which once fed the entire Roman Empire with grain, now imports wheat from Russia. In Egypt, the problem of desiccation is aggravated by the fact that in Ethiopia, suffering from dehydration, from where the Nile flows, they began to build dams, deciding to retain a precious resource. Turkey is doing the same - it blocks its rivers flowing to Syria. Having dammed the Euphrates with a dam, the Turks reduced the flow of fresh water to Syria by a third. Not enough ourselves!

In Yemen, in some areas, the ration of water has already been cut to 1 liter per day per person.

More than 400,000 wells have dried up in Syria. As a result, a quarter of a million peasants were forced to leave their homes.

In Iraq, in the north of this country, cereal plantings fell by 95%. Even traditional dates there are more and more difficult to grow - if earlier there were 33 million date palms in Iraq, now there are only 8 million left. There is nothing to water!

In other words, we have a situation of scissors: on the one hand, a rapidly growing population due to a high birth rate, on the other, rapidly diminishing resources. The bearing capacity of the territory drops sharply. And what to do with tens of millions of extra mouths?

They are simply doomed to burn out in the flames of a great war. This has always been the case in history. First, in a territory with a deteriorating climate, the most severe civil strife occurs, as a result of which one one - the most cruel and irreconcilable, takes power (this is how an empire crystallizes), and then a military campaign outside follows, along a moisture gradient.

Will the campaign take place outside this time, given that the richest country in fresh water is Russia, as well as the fact that it is on the territory of Russia that "traditionally Islamic lands" are located, which, for example, the Islamic State, the first contender for the grain of the imperial crystallization? Can we hope that the fire of the Third World War will not touch us, but will safely burn out the excess population only within the arid area?

Will tens of millions of superfluous people "climb" - first into the soft underbelly of Russia - Central Asia, and then into Russia itself? And will Russia be able to use its nuclear weapons if the infiltration proceeds as in the anecdote about the Chinese - “in numerous small detachments of one hundred thousand people”? One thing is clear - Russia has no demographic resources for such a war.

Will the West help us in the struggle, given that we have managed to quarrel with the West and the whole world because we attacked our closest ally, Ukraine, which will not help us either? Will we not have to pay a terrible price for this Judas betrayal?

On Monday, the head of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Bob Corker, accused his party member President Donald Trump of "reckless threats" to other countries. Such actions could lead to a third world war, Corker predicts.

Another scenario for the beginning of the third world was also proposed by the American RAND Corporation. According to her analysts, the threat to peace comes from the uncontrolled proliferation of hypersonic missiles. They are practically being developed in the USA, China and Russia, and are also interested in Europe, Japan, Australia and India.

Stop pumping

The threat of a third world war after Trump's arrival in the White House is scared so often that it is not even scary: it becomes clear that these horror stories are used simply because such is the current political situation, says Ivan Konovalov, director of the Center for Strategic Conjuncture.

"Corker's statement and RAND's forecasts paint two very different scenarios for provoking the outbreak of a world war, but they are not interconnected in any way," he told Reedus.

Corker, as they say, is whipping up: after all, the Iranian problem for the United States (and primarily for the main American ally in the region, Israel) arose back in 1979. But the war of words between Tehran on the one hand and Washington and Jerusalem on the other, which has not stopped for a single day for almost forty years, has not even spilled over into a regional armed conflict, let alone a world war.

Moreover, Donald Trump has not yet undertaken anything that even came close to the desperate action of President Jimmy Carter, who sent commandos to free the American hostages from the US Embassy in Tehran. Even if the mutual actions of the two countries, equally contrary to international law, did not lead to a military conflict, then the formal refusal of the United States to cooperate with Iran on nuclear issues would not lead to them.

Why did the US become so peaceful

Likewise, the threat of the proliferation of hypersonic missiles by itself cannot provoke a global conflict, Konovalov continues.

“In fact, such missiles represent a completely new class of weapons that can instantly change the strategic balance of power,” the expert says.

The creation of a hypersonic vehicle in the United States is taking place within the framework of the Prompt Global Strike strategy (global non-nuclear strike), which implies a massive strike on the enemy's infrastructure in the shortest possible time, such as blitzkrieg 2.0. Hypersonic media play a crucial role in this strategy.

The irony of fate is that the United States was the first to start developing hypersonic missiles, but this time the Russians quickly harnessed and drove even faster. And now the Russian "Zircon" is an American analogue of the X-43.

“The Americans were suddenly so concerned about ending the arms race that they unexpectedly found themselves in the role of catch-up. After all, only three Zircon missiles that Russia is testing are enough to sink an American aircraft carrier. Moreover, they can even have a non-nuclear warhead, ”explains Konovalov.

That is why the RAND Corporation is now inviting the top three countries - leaders in the development of "hypersonic" - to sign an agreement on the non-proliferation of hypersonic weapons.

This article may sound daunting. But we all live in such a time that the start of a new world war becomes a real prospect. In the article, we will answer the question of whether the start date of the Third World War is predicted or not.

Modern war

In the minds of most people who grew up on a filmography based on the Great Patriotic War, the standard of hostilities looks like a clipping from a film. Reasoning logically, we understand that exactly the way a saber from 1917 would look ridiculous in the hands of a Soviet soldier of 1941, it will be strange to observe a picture of barbed wire being cut at night by partisans in our time.

And you must admit that, having weapons of mass destruction in the form of nuclear charges, bacteriological crops and climate control, it is paradoxical to expect a repetition of the classics in the form of a bayonet-knife and a dugout.

Silent panic, gradually undermining web users and skillfully fueled by the media, is felt in the thousands of requests received every hour. People are so convinced of the inevitability of disaster that they hardly ask questions - will there be one? The clumsy wording sounds much more relevant: when is the exact date for the start of World War III set?

And now this is already scary.

Battle for resources

The era when forests, fields, rivers and the defeated people were the main indemnity to the winner has passed forever. Today, the greatness of a country is dictated not by its population and not by its rich history of victories, but by the possession of underground treasures: oil springs, natural gas deposits, coal beds, and uranium deposits.

The date of the beginning of the Third World War is not kept secret. She just passed so long ago that her exact number is hardly preserved in the minds. The dream of the engines of trade policy has come true - the economy and the struggle for the first place in the leadership elite have become at the head of the main life values.

It is not out of place to recall the main method of trade relations, which works everywhere and at all times. The most selective piece never got to those who were bargaining and fighting for it - there was always someone else present, standing aside and sympathetically watching the fight.

Based on events: how it can be

Many will interfere, one will get it. It is no secret that the main threat to Russia is attributed to the United States, but the events unfolding around the world's largest leaders indicate that the general tension creates only the appearance of a real threat. The flowing information masterfully maintains the highest bar on the scale of mass hysteria, while the war unleashed by a powerful power (read - the USA) began long ago.

The events in Ukraine, Iraq and Syria speak not of spontaneous, but carefully thought-out actions, on which not a single hundred analysts with such a rich strategic experience have worked, which none of these countries simply does not have. After all, we are not talking about accidental clashes, reminiscent of the old fights "yard to yard" - we are talking about a war that draws the masses. And here all sorts of peacekeeping missions with the introduction of friendly troops at the ready with friendly weapons only fuel a hostile attitude.

The EU readily accepts information in the form in which it is presented by the United States - apparently the European Union has neither the time nor the initiative for the proceedings. Like a bull to a red rag, so the leaders of the European Union will react to the slightest US movement towards military action against Russia.

This will give the Chinese government, which has been holding itself back for a long time, a reason to speak. The stagnation of American troops in the Pacific has long poisoned the existence of the patient Chinese, whose hand is tired of trembling over the nuclear button. Israel's reaction is also predictable - the long-awaited concordant nod from the United States will allow them to attack Tehran, but how long Israel itself will survive after that is a big question. The last volleys across Iraq will hardly have time to die off, as the Libyan, Omani, Yemeni and (where can we go without them) - Egyptian bombs will simply sweep away the hapless aggressor.

Anyone else interested in the start date of World War III? Then we discuss further.

Side view - how it will be

It is useful to hear what he thinks about the events, it’s scary to say - the ones to come, retired Colonel General Anatoly Lopata, former Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and First Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine. Looking ahead, we note that the remark of the former Secretary of Defense about the location of the future battlefield fully coincides with the opinion of the British Air Colonel Ian Shields.

When asked by journalists what the Third World War is and when it will begin, Anatoly Lopata calmly explained that the war is in full swing and is called the aggressor country in it - who do you think? - of course, Russia. And even in relation to America, at least in that it responds with sympathy to the Assad regime in Syria (!). At the same time, the Colonel General admits that the United States is forced to reckon with the Russian Federation and this will remain unchanged, in view of the enormous economic and military potential of the latter.

The date of the outbreak of the Third World War, according to the expert, therefore, refers to the distant past, but its development to the scale of epic battles is in the future, to which one still needs to live. Anatoly Lopata even shared a mysterious figure - 50. In his opinion, it is after this number of years that the warring powers will collide in the vast expanses of space.

Analyst forecasts

Joachim Hagopian, known since 2015, warned that the recruitment of "friends" by the US and Russia is not accidental. China and India will follow Russia anyway, and the EU countries have nothing to do but accept America's policy. For Korea, Hagopian predicted military neutrality towards both powers, but a rather violent internecine war with the likelihood of activating nuclear charges. It can be assumed that the day when the powerful weapon will be activated is the date of the beginning of the Third World War.

Alexander Richard Schiffer, an interesting personality and past head of NATO, in his book 2017: War with Russia, predicted the defeat of the United States due to financial collapse, followed by the collapse of the American army.

Vladimir Zhirinovsky, as always, is unambiguous and says what the majority is delicately silent about. He is confident that America will not start any open actions until all the countries involved in the military conflict have gnawed among themselves in collapse, and exhausted, do not lay down what remains of weapons. Then the United States will generously rally the discouraged losers and be the sole winner.

Sergei Glazyev, Adviser to the President of the Russian Federation, proposes to create a coalition that fundamentally does not support military policy against Russia. The set of countries that are officially ready to speak out for renouncing the armed conflict, he said, will be such that America will simply have to moderate its appetites.

As Wanga believed

Wanga, the most famous Bulgarian seer, either could not or did not want to predict the date of the beginning of World War III. In order not to confuse minds with specifics, the clairvoyant said only that the cause of the war she sees religious strife around the world. Drawing a parallel with current events, it can be assumed that the date of the beginning of World War III, which Wanga did not predict, falls on the period of terrorist acts of the ISIS group disguised as offended religious feelings.

In terms of exact dates

How not to mention the world-wide American Horatio Villegas, whose vision of fiery spheres striking the earth from heaven became a sensation in 2015. Adapting quite materialistic tasks to the act of clairvoyance, Horatio hastened to announce that he knew the date of the beginning of the Third World War - 05/13/2017. With regret or great joy, we note that no one had to observe the fireballs on May 13.

It remains to be hoped that people who were expecting big events in March 2017 were not very upset when they lost confirmation of the words of astrologer Vlad Ross. Recall that this person also named the start date of the Third World War - 03/26/2017, which did not find a response in reality.

As a result of a new global military conflict, more than half of the inhabitants of our planet may die.

The Anglo-Saxons want to rule the world alone. The United States, Britain, Canada and Australia are no longer satisfied with the current world order established in the wake of World War II. Washington and its allies are striving through a new world war to build a unipolar world and establish a new world order at their own discretion, depriving Russia and China of a decisive voice in the international arena. But the geopolitical plans of the United States can cost humanity dearly, since the Third World War (TMW) in its consequences could become a real apocalypse.

War as a way to solve the financial problems of the Anglo-Saxons and their allies

The ground for a new world war is created by the West's desire to zero its external debts and take control of the regions of the world rich in energy resources. In the past three decades, the developed countries of the West - the USA, Great Britain, Italy, France, Spain and others - have been rapidly increasing their external debt. Borrowed mainly from China, Arab oil-exporting countries and the rich economic "tigers" of Southeast Asia. In 2014, the aggregate external debt of Western countries and their allies exceeded $ 100 trillion. The external debt of the United States alone exceeds $ 18 trillion, of which about 1.3 trillion Americans owe China.

But Western countries, primarily the United States and Great Britain, are unable to repay their huge debts. Living at the expense of others, Western countries have a highly developed economy, advanced technologies and powerful armed forces equipped with the most modern types of weapons and military equipment. And the creditor countries of the West with their developing economies act only in the role of catch-up. In addition, the main creditors of the West have abundant energy reserves. Therefore, the economic giants of the West - the United States, Great Britain and their allies, having a clear technological and military superiority over their creditors, not only do not want to repay their external debt, but do not even want to pay huge amounts of money to the countries of Africa, the Middle East for oil and gas. Persian Gulf, Latin America.
The main targets

China, the Islamic world, first of all Turkey and Iran, as well as the recalcitrant countries of South America - Venezuela, Bolivia, Argentina and Brazil - are the main targets of the West in TMV. In recent years, China has become a serious threat to the military and political interests of the United States and the main competitor of the American economy. The negative trade balance between the United States and China in 2013 reached $ 300 billion and China became the world leader in terms of trade. In 2014, China overtook the United States in terms of the size of the economy and came out on top in the world.

Having destroyed the "Chinese dragon", the United States wants to solve two strategic tasks at once: 1) remove America's main economic rival from the world arena; 2) deal a severe blow to Russia, because after the collapse of the Chinese economy, Moscow will lose its main buyer of Russian oil and gas, which will devastate the Russian state budget and stagnate the Russian economy for many years.

The PRC will be "attacked" from two sides: in the east, a Sino-Japanese war will begin over the Senkaku Islands in the Chinese Sea, and in the northwestern outskirts of China, in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, a powerful wave of separatism will rise with the help of American special services, armed radical Islamic groups and large-scale hostilities will begin there, comparable to the current war in Iraq and Syria. Obviously, in the war with China, the United States will also fight on the side of Japan (at the initial stage, only behind the scenes), which deprives Beijing of the chance to win this war.

The next targets are Iran and Turkey. Having defeated these countries, the Anglo-Saxons will gain complete control over the Islamic world. Further in the countries of South America - in Venezuela, Bolivia, Argentina and Brazil, through the "color revolutions" large-scale hostilities can be provoked.

The United States wants to involve Russia in the Ukrainian conflict in order to weaken the Russian armed forces and “touch” their strengths and weaknesses. Russia's participation in the Ukrainian war is a kind of "test" of Moscow's readiness for a new global war. If Russia wins the "Ukrainian party" from the United States without direct military intervention and without serious losses, while keeping its armed forces "safe and sound" and in full combat readiness, then the United States will avoid direct military confrontation with Russia and try to weaken it by economic means, and then try to destroy from the inside with the help of the Russian "fifth column". Therefore, the United States, with the help of its puppets from the Arab world - Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait and others, are sharply reducing oil prices in order to create financial problems for Putin's Russia, and with the help of its European allies-vassals they want to strangle Russia economically by imposing various sanctions ... Thus, the United States wants to create a revolutionary situation in Russia in the coming years in order to distract the President of Russia with the help of the "fifth column" Vladimir Putinfrom international problems. As conceived by the Washington geostrategists, while Russia is solving its internal problems, the United States will be engaged in the redistribution of world oil and gas reserves and the establishment of a new world order based on the American unipolar world.

After that, many European countries will plunge into economic, and later on, into military-political chaos, as a result of which the European Union will cease to exist. The reasons for the "indignation" of a united Europe will be socio-economic cataclysms arising in the wake of the economic crisis, mass unemployment, as well as strong anti-immigrant and anti-Islamic sentiments of the inhabitants of the EU member states.

Ten signs of a global apocalypse approaching

The first signal that TMV is approaching will be the signing of a peace treaty between Japan and Russia. Tokyo, which unexpectedly recognizes Russia's sovereignty over these territories, will initiate a peaceful solution to the Kuril Islands problem. In late November, Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said that his government "intends to resolve territorial disputes with Russia in the near future and conclude a peace treaty with her."

The signing of a peace treaty with Russia Tokyo needs to "neutralize" its northern neighbor on the eve of the war with China over the Senkaku Islands, so that Moscow, because of the peace treaty, does not provide military assistance to China in the war against Japan. Therefore, the start of the Sino-Japanese war over the Senkaku Islands in the Chinese Sea will be the second signal of the TMV approaching.

The third sign is a sharp aggravation of disputes around the division of the Arctic into national territories. The UN will be unable to satisfy the claims of the USA, Canada, Denmark, Great Britain and Norway, as a result of which this issue will acquire a military-political character. At the same time, all Western countries claiming to be in the Arctic will act as a united front against Russia.

The fourth sign is the disintegration of Ukraine, after which the neighboring countries - Poland, Austria, Hungary and Romania will begin a struggle for the western regions of the collapsed Ukrainian state. There is a high probability that the struggle between these countries for the former Ukrainian territories will not be peaceful and will turn into a major military conflict.

The fifth sign is that NATO can provoke Russia into a military conflict in the Baltic States in order to distract Russia from the division of Ukrainian territories and from the Sino-Japanese war. Baltic dwarfs - Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia will be used by the Anglo-Saxons as bait in their geopolitical games against Russia.

The sixth sign is that Turkey, Iran and Israel will be involved in the war in Syria and Iraq. The United States will seek through this conflict to destroy Turkey and Iran, which are trying to get out of the Western influence. The collapse of these countries will take place through the creation of a large Kurdistan controlled by Washington, which will include the territories of compact residence of Kurds in Iraq, Syria, Turkey and Iran.

The seventh sign is that armed Islamic radicals from Afghanistan will attack Uzbekistan. At the same time, Islamic extremists will become active in neighboring Kyrgyzstan and the southeastern regions of Kazakhstan. The goal of the Islamists behind whom the American intelligence services will stand is to create an Islamic Caliphate with radical Sharia law in post-Soviet Central Asia in order to put pressure on Russia and China.

The eighth sign is that in the countries of South America - Venezuela, Bolivia, Argentina, Brazil and other countries of the region that oppose American influence, "color revolutions" will begin with the aim of overthrowing the regimes unwanted by Washington. After that, American troops will be sent to Venezuela and Bolivia at the call of the leaders of the "color revolutions" in these countries.

The ninth sign of the approach of TMV is the disregard of the United Nations by the United States and Great Britain as the main international institution. Washington, together with its allies, will sabotage the work of the UN Security Council, accusing it of inability to solve the main military-political problems of the world. To destroy the UN, the United States and Great Britain can leave the Security Council of this organization and call on their allies-vassals, including temporary members of the Security Council, to leave the UN altogether. Such a scenario is quite real, given that last year one of the main allies of the United States, Saudi Arabia, refused to take the place of a temporary member of the UN Security Council, accusing him of inability to solve global peace problems, including resolving the military conflict in Syria.

The tenth sign, after which the Third World War may begin within the next few days or hours, will be the collapse of the single Internet space and the suspension of electronic trading in the world currency, commodity and stock markets due to high volatility as a result of a sharp drop in liquidity and the inability to conduct further cashless payments between countries in an extremely tense international situation.

The dire consequences of the apocalypse

TMV could be the worst war in human history. Its victims can become not tens of millions, but hundreds of millions and even billions of people in different parts of our planet. Moreover, a significant part of people will die not during the war itself, but as a result of its grave consequences in the post-war years. If the new global "meat grinder" is nuclear-free, then several hundred million people may become its victims, given the population of the countries involved in TMV.
But the likelihood that TMV will be nuclear is very high. To intimidate their main opponents, the United States, Britain and France can use nuclear weapons against Muslim countries engulfed in Islamic radicalism. The West will justify its act by saying that Islamic extremist terrorists are committing cruel crimes against humanity and threaten the whole world.

But Russia and China can also become targets of Western nuclear strikes. Today no country dares to conduct a ground operation against Russia. But at a critical moment, the United States and its allies can launch a nuclear strike against Russia and China to intimidate and demonstrate the "seriousness" of their intentions. Former Economic Policy Assistant to the United States Treasury Secretary Paul Craig Roberts in June 2014 published an article "Are you ready for a nuclear war?", In which he argues that "Washington thinks that a nuclear war can be won and plans to strike a first blow at Russia and possibly China to exclude any challenge to Washington's global hegemony. " According to Roberts, “US strategic doctrine has changed, and nuclear missiles, which were previously assigned the role of retaliation, are now assigned the role of first offensive strike .... Washington believes it can win a nuclear war with little or no damage to the United States. This belief makes nuclear war possible. "

If TMV is nuclear, then in the course of the hostilities themselves about a billion people may die, since the population of the countries participating in the future global military conflict is several billion people. But the number of people who died after the war due to its dire consequences will be many times greater and may amount to three billion people or more. The population of Muslim countries, South America and China will be mainly destroyed. The densely populated India will also be affected by the tragedy. The initiators of the monstrous world massacre themselves cannot avoid losses. Even if US cities survive a nuclear retaliatory strike with anti-ballistic missiles, radiation and a nuclear winter from the use of weapons against Russia, China and other states will also destroy the US, Canada, Australia, the UK and European countries. The fact is that after a nuclear war, many inhabitants of our planet will die due to a sharp increase in the level of radiation, from unknown diseases that have appeared against the background of the severe consequences of the war, and medicines for the treatment of these diseases will either not be found yet, or will be insufficient.

In addition, after a nuclear war, a large-scale food crisis will arise and mass famine will begin around the world, since the territories of countries that have been subjected to nuclear strikes or are close to nuclear strikes will be unsuitable for agricultural needs. Thus, most of the people who survived a nuclear war will die as a result of three main troubles: abnormal cold weather (nuclear winter), hunger and various incurable diseases.

As a result, many cities and countries may remain deserted. After such an apocalypse, it will take humanity hundreds of years to return to normal living conditions.

A lot has been said about the third world, since the end of the second. For the people, "three" is a magic number.
Previously, it was assumed that a world war would begin between two world empires, or rather world systems.
But were there any reasons and prerequisites for the conflict? Until the collapse of the USSR, the restraining factors that formed the basis of the world order and were reinforced by the factor of a possible nuclear apocalypse worked.

Are there any reasons for the third world war now?

Who needs war and why? Probably the war would not have prevented the United States, this country would profit from it as always and would strengthen its hegemony. However, the states cannot start this war for various reasons. The US can hardly even provoke it. But they can and probably will contribute to the development of the situation because they are the obvious beneficiaries.

Let us recall the preconditions for wars. Whatever they say, but the main reason for the expansion is the economy or otherwise, the redistribution of world goods and resources.
What does the United States lack, why should they fight? Yes, they have everything, they are already a world empire. Maybe they want to defend themselves and strike a preemptive strike? I think they have nothing to do with it.

It is profitable for America to wait for the fire and take a "feasible" part in extinguishing it and get all the bonuses from it. Well, it can accelerate the development of the situation because their debts will affect their position sooner or later. And the very basis of dominance can be shaken. This is facilitated by the global economic crisis, the way out of which can be war and a new world order that the victors will create.

Who to fight with? Of course with Russia, many will say. Is not a fact. Why is China worse? Also a competitor.
There is an assumption that these three will not fight because the one who has been victorious will tolerate it at an unacceptably high price!
It is easier to divide the world, which is partly done, for the sake of which all these events in Ukraine.
Suppose the United States goes to war with the Russian Federation, what are the options?

1) China is neutral. The PRC is a beneficiary, and it will become a hegemon. Who needs it?
2) China with Russia is a bipolar world without the US, without options ...
3) China with the states is unlikely, and the defeated Russia will simply detonate all the charges even on its territory. Once again dinosaurs will dominate the earth.

All three options are not needed by anyone. So there will be no war? And where, then, is her worldwide subconscious premonition from? Part of it is fear of her. But there are also prerequisites - this is a global, systemic crisis that began in 2008. After all, it has not been resolved and is unlikely to be resolved without transforming the world system of redistribution.
But what about the section of the world that I mentioned above? Will the world want to be divided? This is both the problem and the reason for possible wars.
The crisis is that the post-industrial economy did not take place, it is the same utopia at the present stage as communism.
Another crisis is that a society of high consumer culture cannot be created in a single country or in a group of countries, the rest of the world will not want to pay for it all.
It is becoming more and more difficult for the "civilized world" to take social tension outside the national borders. Tension on the periphery is becoming a problem and terrorism is its product. The longer terror will become more organized and will inevitably become nuclear someday.
And if someone somehow unites with some idea a part of the world, not devoid of resources, but bypassed by the distribution system?

Such a force may be a religious force, and an idea may be the idea of \u200b\u200bfair (Divine) distribution.
The Islamic world has all the prerequisites for war, which were at one time the instigator of the previous world wars. The Muslim world is approaching the table of capitalist food and the seats at it are also taken.
Of course, Islam needs to overcome internal contradictions, which they will try not to let him do, but ISIS is trying and this is no longer so incredible.
Perhaps there will be another Islamic revolution in Iran and another coup in Pakistan. The situation in Egypt is fragile.
The Semites (Arabs) know how to conduct a secret struggle, and it is possible that there are ready-made organizations in Asia that do not manifest themselves in any way (mimicking for the time being). Maybe in Russia there are secret recruits of the fifth Islamic column, future collaborators.
Of course, Islam considers the United States to be the main enemy, and not without reason. But America is overseas and we need resources to get it and at least neutralize it.
These resources (intercontinental) are in China and the Russian Federation. Like Hitler in his day, ISIS will have to attack Russia because of the resources for the war. By that time, they will have nuclear weapons, although not enough to win, but coupled with the internal Russian Islamic factor, perhaps enough to count on a peace with certain conditions ...

How will the situation with the global confrontation most likely develop?

The United States has traditionally been Russia's allies in two world wars. Most likely it will be so in the third world. Yes, we will not fight among ourselves, we do not need this. Russia needs peace for development, but "if you want peace, prepare for war" And America needs a war to strengthen its hegemony. So we will look for a balance of interests. A common enemy still looms.
Having conquered the Middle East by various means, ISIS will possibly take over parts of Asia and India. Then it will inevitably move to the Russian Federation.
China will be neutral at first, it is beneficial to it. The States will also hesitate with the second front. But when Russia weakens against an internal enemy and an external aggressor, America will put a fat nuclear point in the Middle East. As it was in Hiroshima.
That's all, it remains to build a new world order for the next hundred years. And the main thing is who will control this order, probably those who will build it, in Yalta or Tehran, for example ...

A priori, Russia could not avoid participation in the Second World War, but it became one of the beneficiaries - it restored and expanded the empire to a global power.
But she could have avoided the first. Joseph-1 corrected Nikolai-2's mistake.
The king had two brothers; cousin Willie and cousin Georgie. Nicky would have chosen another and the world would have been different, there would have been no World War II and the threat of a third world war. The unit is also a magic number.
Instead of money to the Bolsheviks and a sealed carriage, Nikolai-2 himself, even from personal funds, could pay the Germans to leave Serbia and conclude an alliance with them, in exchange for the Bosphorus with the Dardanelles. The Germans would have gotten theirs by right, even before Frau Merkel.
Even half, only the liquid personal funds of the Emperor of Russia, would have been enough for Stolypin for reforms and the elimination of the revolutionary situation - was the monk squeezed?
And taking into account military supplies and the weakening of the belligerent powers, Russia would become the first economy in the world, growth began in 13 year!
There would now be two world powers, Russia and Germany, and no threat of a global conflict.
Germany became the first in Europe and Russia will inevitably become, but what about the threat of a third world war? Can you try not to participate in it and therefore does not strongly oppose its beginning? Maybe let them fight? Could keep the states from the temptation to put a nuclear end and guarantee American non-interference with available means ???
