Very possible, but just as easily another dictator, more ambitious then the current, could come to power. I dont know if Korea will
ever be able to reunite, there is just too much hate involved.

China may want Tiawan back, but they don't want to risk a fight with the US and everyone else. They have far fewer and far weaker allies than the US has. The US will be able to get the French, Germans, Russians, and Canadians involved with them in a military operation if China even sets one foot on Tiawan.
China's dictator is insane, not stupid (not as insane as other dictators, though .gif "Wink") ).

No, they wouldnt initiate the invasion, but if the whole N. Korea ordeal happened, they might have had the opportunity.
China has the largest standing army by a very large margin. Plus, if they combined with the nukes of N. Korea (and possibly their own) they could have a very strong force. Add in Japan joining forces with them (Though they probably wouldnt, but neither would the Germans fight with America unless in dire need) and you have a
very strong force.
Also, if China and company was to quickly spread across Eastern Asia, they could build up with more resources and men. Its a long shot, but meh...

Persoanlly, I think WW3 is most likely to start with terrorists. I mean, who the **** would be stupid to launch a nuke at anyone. With the US being a big brother to the whole world now, they'ld have the have a suicide wish. |
It isnt really, but just like before, we always seem to have a major war every 30 years or so. It seems like that circle of fate is coming close. We had 1860's, 1910's, 1940's, 1970's and now the present. Call me crazy, but it seems like we are due :cool:
All it would take is one nuke. It wouldnt even have to be against America. In fact, even the rumor of a nuke may cause retaliation. But once one is launched, another will counter, and then 2, 3, etc.
