1. There will be no nuclear war
There's too much real estate involved

At least according to Frank Zappa back in the 1980s

My opinion about WW3 is that it will not be easy to define, like we won't know it's WW3 until half the countries are fighting (or until the US is fighting half the world :P) and we can't get out of it without the whole world changing (or dying :P) and I bet no one with power will admit it's WW3 until all their people are dead or starving.

6. o, but it's looking to be even more vicious than Chechnya. And it's a goddamn shame
how few Americas know about the extent of THAT slaughter.

10. Only if we're stupid enough to meddle
Georgia and Russia are Georgia and Russia's problem.
