    World War 3 will start at.  An American professor told where the third world war could start.  Predictions of Vladimir Zhirinovsky

    Conflict military actions that arose in the sphere of world politics could not but cause concern on the part of expert specialists. For example, the strike from the United States on Syria led to the formation of tense relations in the arena of the world. And when the arrival of destroyers from America to the territory of South Korea came, serious concerns arose in the public. Experts believe that all these events are extremely dangerous for interethnic relations. They told their assumptions about what will be the date of the next stage of history - a new war.

    According to the employees of the Zvezda TV and radio company, it will begin this year, on May 13. The British publication received news of these events from the predictor Horatio Villegas. The tabloid published information that the clairvoyant was able to "foresee" Donald Trump's victory in the US presidential election, and he has already been aware of this turn of events since 2015.

    In addition, the mystical stranger allegedly "gave a prediction" to the US-initiated missile attack on Syria. And according to him, the third world war will begin on May 13, it will be just a whole century from the moment when the Virgin Mary appeared in Fatima.

    The Prophet reported that he dreamed of balls of fire that "fell from the sky" and then ended up on the ground. He also notified the media that in his vision there were people who were running in search of shelter from the brutal military operations.

    According to the mystic himself, the balls are signs symbolizing nuclear missiles that should fall on the world next month. The British tabloid quoted these speculations word for word. At the same time, he emphasized that the mystic has been striving for many years to tell about the next war, but people still have no grounds for trusting him.

    The TV and radio company itself reported that the film, which simulated a North Korean attack on the United States, was shown on the screens of residents of the republic on April 15, became the object of heated discussions within the network.

    Media representatives gave recommendations not to get involved in other people's affairs that do not concern other peoples, because the leadership of the state behaves unpredictably, and it is not known how it will be able to respond to political conflicts. It is worth noting that the lion's share of users approved of the actions of the authorities that threaten America.

    A quote from comments on social networks and other resources, conditionally: “There is no need to get into other people's orders with your rules, what kind of historical amnesia”, “This is not the first intimidation in the memory of history, and the USSR was scared, and other countries - nothing, like as long as everyone is alive."

    Nevertheless, there were users who objected that in Korea, all life is an imitation and a lie, and ordinary people want to live in truth and prosperity. Now nothing threatens North Korea, it is it that harbors threats of nuclear weapons and “rushes” at other states. In general, opinions on this issue have seriously diverged.

    The authorized minister of the embassy in North Korea said that the state's army is ready to retaliate against the United States and begin military operations on a global scale. The country's deputy representative to the UN suggested that the responsibility for the deterioration of the situation lay solely with the United States.

    It is not yet known who to believe, and whether there will be a Third World War. On the one hand, many mystics have already tried to predict this date and failed. On the other hand, the situation in the world today is extremely difficult and there is a possibility of a reversal of hostilities on the territory of several countries at once.

    Many people ask themselves the question, when will the third world war begin, and is this really a real prospect, and not fantasy fiction? To answer this question, we must turn to history.

    The reasons that led the world to two world wars, and the current situation in the world

    To understand whether a third world war is possible, one must analyze the causes that led to the start of the first two world wars.

    • The First World War was fought for spheres of influence in Europe and for colonies, which were not enough for everyone;
    • The Second World War became a continuation of the First and began as a result of the policy of Hitler, who came to power, skillfully playing on the thirst for revenge of the defeated German people, adding here his theory of the exclusivity of the Aryan race.

    The results of the war in all cases are the same:

    1. Famine and destruction;
    2. Epidemics and unsanitary conditions;
    3. Tens of millions of killed and maimed soldiers and civilians;
    4. civil conflicts;
    5. Looting and banditry.

    As a result, the post-war devastation throws peoples decades back in development.

    The "Pendulum" Theory in the Light of Recent Events and the Crusades

    Based on the theory of the pendulum, one can make disappointing predictions about the Third World War. In the Middle Ages, immigrants from African countries (the so-called "Moors") captured Spain, from where they made devastating raids on European countries for many years. The pendulum swung, and the Moors left Europe, and the Europeans made a deposit of useful resources from Africa, completely not caring about the needs of the common population.

    If we turn to history, we can see an analogy between the crusaders and modern "peacekeepers," who again seek to Africa, ostensibly in the name of high ideals, although the real goal is oil.

    Does this mean that World War III is inevitable? Most likely not. Major world powers with nuclear potential are a kind of guarantor of peace on earth. Only a madman, knowing what nuclear weapons are capable of, is able to unleash a world conflict that will lead to the disappearance of at least 90 percent of the world's population. Disasters at nuclear power plants clearly demonstrated what the atom is capable of.

    Since wars have haunted mankind throughout the history of its existence, military conflicts in the "hot spots" of the planet are inevitable. Their main goal has always been and will be the benefit that politicians and corporations can derive from this. But since after the third world war there will be practically no people left on earth, the economy will be completely destroyed and money will lose its value, the “powerful ones” will not allow this.

    Predictions about the Third World War

    The probability of war, according to modern forecasters, is not negligible at all. Every year, another "prophet" appears, who not only draws the scenario of the Third World War, but also names the exact date of its beginning. Terrible visions are voiced in which fire pours onto the ground and water turns into poison. The start date of the terrible conflict is constantly being postponed, so even the most superstitious citizens have stopped believing in these "prophecies".

    The schemers' predictions are so vague that almost any conflict in the world can be associated with the start of the 3rd World War. With the escalation of the conflict in Baghdad, when oil was burning and American tanks were rushing into battle, the number of scammers who want to capitalize on people's superstitions has increased exponentially.

    However, the same thought can be traced in all predictions: humanity will have a choice, and it will depend on this whether complete extermination or a happy future awaits us.

    The Third World War, the prophecies of the soothsayers of the past and present

    The predictions of famous soothsayers of the past and present about what the new world war will be like differ from each other in dates and possible options for the development of further events. Internet with various quotes that can be interpreted as you like. Recent events in the Donbass and the escalation of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine have provoked rumors that the third world war is already beginning, and there are fierce debates on the Internet about who will win it. As never before, the predictions of Vanga, Nostradamus and other similar "soothsayers" have become popular.

    Vanga's warnings are frightened by a large-scale world conflict on religious grounds, which should develop into a massive internecine war. Events in the East can be interpreted as the beginning of this conflict, although this region has never been stable and such conflicts were constantly fought there. Vanga also pointed out that natural disasters around the world would become more frequent, and the consequences of this war would be felt by her children, that is, our generation. Despite the large number of coincidences in Vanga's predictions, you should not unconditionally believe in them.

    Matrona of Moscow's predictions about whether there will be a Third World War are unclear. The saint claimed that there would be no battle, and the number of dead would be huge. Some interpret this prediction as a possible strike from outer space or a terrible global epidemic of an unknown disease. Russia in this prediction predicts salvation and rebirth.

    Nostradamus's predictions of the future are the most vague. His poems, called quatrains, can be interpreted very broadly. If you set a goal, you can bind to them almost any event on a global scale. Recently, many scammers have been speculating on the predictions of a famous astrologer of the past, hoping to capitalize on the gullibility of the population.

    The predictions of modern soothsayers are more rosy. For example, Pavel Globa argues that one should not be afraid of a nuclear war. The main problem of the future will be the economic condition of the planet. As a result of resource depletion, Europe and the United States will lose their positions on the world stage, and Russia will take a leading position, thanks to the rich resource base in the country. It is predicted to unite with the CIS countries to create a stronger state.

    Malakhat Nazarova, a soothsayer from Baku, also does not frighten with terrible catastrophes, although she does not exclude the possibility that a third world war may begin. According to her theory, at the end of each century, the world plunges into chaos. Although the war may begin, according to the forecasts of the seer, it will not lead to the extermination of mankind.

    As you can see, the prophecies are rather vague and contradictory. Don't blindly trust them. It is better to listen to the opinion of well-known politicians and military figures.

    Forecasts of the military and politicians

    The possible beginning of a global conflict worries not only ordinary citizens of the planet, but also the powerful of this world. In 2014, the publication of political analyst Joachim Hagopian, who claimed that Russia and the United States were seriously preparing to enter into an open conflict, caused a huge resonance. All major world states will be drawn into this war. The entire European Union will side with the United States, while India and China will support Russia.

    The analyst calls the depletion of energy resources the main cause of the global conflict. According to Hagopian, the US economy is on the verge of bankruptcy, and in order to rise, it needs to seize new resource bases. According to the expert, this conflict will unleash the Third World War and lead to the complete disappearance of some peoples.

    American officer, former head of NATO Richard Shirreff described his point of view in the book "2017: War with Russia". According to his beliefs, Russia will take over the Baltic countries, which are part of NATO, after which the US government will lightly go to war with Russia. According to Shirreff, the US Army will suffer a crushing defeat as government spending on the US Army decreases year after year.

    Knowing the real role of Russia on the world stage, its authority and peaceful policy, this development of events looks implausible.

    The results of a possible military confrontation between the United States and Russia

    In order to assess the possible outcomes of a global conflict between the United States and Russia, one should try to roughly estimate the combat potential of both sides. British Colonel Ian Shields gives the following data on the size of both armies:

    1. The number of NATO soldiers exceeds 3.5 million, which is more than 4 times the size of the Russian army (according to the same data, it is 800,000 people);
    2. NATO has about 7.5 thousand tanks, which is three times the number of tanks in the Russian army.

    Despite such a significant superiority of manpower, this will not play a big role in a possible war. The main role in this conflict will be played by the latest technologies, the use of which can destroy tens of thousands of soldiers in a matter of seconds. Ian Shields believes that there is no need to fear that the superpowers will begin to use nuclear weapons. The destruction in this case can be so huge that there will be nothing to fight for.

    Forecast from Vladimir Zhirinovsky

    Vladimir Volfovich believes that the United States will not recklessly enter the war until it is 100 percent sure of victory. According to Zhirinovsky, America provoked a conflict between Ukraine and Russia in order to weaken the enemy and draw him into a war with Western Europe. After it becomes clear who will win, the US will finish off the loser and seize his territories.

    The opinion of the leader of the Liberal Democratic Party tends to often come true. The third world war, according to his forecast, will take place in the time period from 2020 to 2025. Russia will win and immediately make a huge leap in development.

    Overpopulation of the planet as the real reason for the start of the Third World War

    It is suggested that by 2050 the world's population will exceed 9 billion, and there will be a need for as much food as the earth is not able to provide. All this will lead to the fact that people will start fighting each other for food, which will lead to terrible wars. These are not fantastic forecasts, but the calculations of a number of scientists. The only way out of this situation is the introduction of family planning.

    Already, many countries have exhausted their natural resources and are forced to cut down forests that will not last long. A huge problem was the presence of huge waste dumps that are not recycled and spoil the environment. After cutting down all the forests on the planet, global warming will begin, which will force many people of third world countries to make mass migrations to more livable lands occupied by other peoples.

    All this will inevitably provoke a conflict between refugees from third world countries and the population of civilized countries, which can only end in the complete destruction of one of the parties.

    Despite the ominous predictions and the escalation of conflicts on the world stage, it is hardly worth expecting the start of a third world war from this side. It is necessary to reconsider the consumer attitude to nature, otherwise our grandchildren will get a future that is approximately familiar to us from post-apocalyptic films and games.

    If you have any questions - leave them in the comments below the article. We or our visitors will be happy to answer them.


    I am fond of martial arts with weapons, historical fencing. I write about weapons and military equipment because it is interesting and familiar to me. I often learn a lot of new things and want to share these facts with people who are not indifferent to military topics.

    Endless terrorist attacks, ongoing armed conflicts, ongoing disagreements between Russia, the United States and the European Union indicate that peace on our planet is literally hanging by a thread. This situation is alarming, both among politicians and among ordinary people. It is no coincidence that the issue of the start of the Third World War is being seriously discussed by the entire world community.

    Expert opinion

    Some political scientists believe that the mechanism of war was already launched several years ago. It all started with Ukraine, when a corrupt president was removed from office and the new government in the country was called illegitimate, but simply a junta. Then they announced to the whole world that it was fascist and began to scare one sixth of the land with it. In the minds of the people of the two fraternal peoples, distrust was first sown, and then outright enmity. A full-scale information war began, in which everything was subordinated to inciting hatred between people.

    This confrontation was painful for the families, relatives, friends of the two fraternal peoples. It got to the point that the politicians of the two countries are ready to push brother against brother. The situation on the Internet also speaks of the danger of the situation. Various discussion platforms and forums have turned into real battlefields where everything is allowed.

    If someone still doubts the likelihood of war, then they can simply go to any social network and see how heated the discussions of topical topics are reaching, from information about oil quotes to the upcoming Eurovision Song Contest.

    If it is possible to quarrel two fraternal peoples who shared grief and victories for more than 360 years, then what can we say about other countries. Any nation can be called an enemy overnight, having prepared timely information support in the media and the Internet. So, for example, it was with Turkey.

    At present, Russia is testing new methods of war on the example of Crimea, Donbass, Ukraine, and Syria. Why deploy multi-million armies, transfer troops, if you can carry out a "successful information attack", and to top it off send a small contingent of "little green men". Fortunately, there is already positive experience in Georgia, Crimea, Syria and the Donbass.

    Some political observers believe that it all started in Iraq, when the US decided to remove the supposedly undemocratic president and carried out Operation Desert Storm. As a result, the country's natural resources came under US control.

    Having made a little “fat” in the 2000s and having carried out a number of military operations, Russia decided not to give in and prove to the whole world that it “got up from its knees”. Hence such “decisive” actions in Syria, in the Crimea and in the Donbass. In Syria, we protect the whole world from ISIS, in Crimea, Russians from Bandera, in the Donbass, the Russian-speaking population from Ukrainian punishers.

    In fact, an invisible confrontation between the United States and Russia has already begun. America does not want to share its dominance in the world with the Russian Federation. Direct evidence of this is the current Syria.

    Tension in different parts of the world, where the interests of the two countries are in contact, will only grow.

    There are experts who believe that the tension with America is caused by the fact that the latter is aware of the loss of its leading position against the backdrop of a rising China and wants to destroy Russia in order to seize its natural wealth. Various methods are used to weaken the Russian Federation:

    • EU sanctions;
    • lower oil prices;
    • involvement of the Russian Federation in the arms race;
    • support of protest moods in Russia.

    America is doing everything to repeat the situation of 1991, when the Soviet Union collapsed.

    War in Russia is inevitable in 2020

    This point of view is shared by the American political analyst I. Hagopian. He posted his thoughts on this subject on the GlobalResears website. He noted that there are all signs of preparing the United States and Russia for war. The author notes that America will be supported by:

    • NATO countries;
    • Israel;
    • Australia;
    • all US satellites around the world.

    Russia's allies include China and India. The expert believes that the United States is waiting for bankruptcy and therefore it will attempt to take possession of the wealth of the Russian Federation. He also stressed that some states may disappear as a result of this conflict.

    Similar forecasts are given by former head of NATO A. Shirreff. For this, he even wrote a book about the war with Russia. In it, he notes the inevitability of a military confrontation with America. According to the plot of the book, Russia captures the Baltic states. NATO countries come to its defense. As a result, World War III begins. On the one hand, the plot looks frivolous and implausible, but on the other hand, given that the work was written by a retired general, the script looks quite plausible.

    Who will win America or Russia

    To answer this question, it is necessary to compare the military power of the two powers:

    Armament Russia USA
    active army 1.4 million people 1.1 million people
    Reserve 1.3 million people 2.4 million people
    Airports and runways 1218 13513
    Aircraft 3082 13683
    Helicopters 1431 6225
    tanks 15500 8325
    armored vehicles 27607 25782
    Self-propelled guns 5990 1934
    Towed artillery 4625 1791
    MLRS 4026 830
    Ports and terminals 7 23
    Warships 352 473
    Aircraft carriers 1 10
    Submarines 63 72
    attack ships 77 17
    Budget 76 trillion. 612 trillion.

    Success in war depends not only on superiority in weapons. According to military expert Y. Shields, the Third World War will not be like the two previous wars. Combat operations will be carried out using computer technology. They will become shorter, but the number of victims will be in the thousands. Nuclear weapons are unlikely to be used, but chemical and bacteriological weapons, as an auxiliary means, are not excluded.

    Attacks will be made not only on the battlefield, but also in:

    • the field of communications;
    • the Internet;
    • television;
    • economy;
    • finance;
    • politics;
    • space.

    Something similar is happening in Ukraine now. The offensive is on all fronts. Blatant disinformation, hacker attacks on financial servers, sabotage in the economic field, discrediting politicians, diplomats, terrorist attacks, shutting down broadcast satellites, and much more can cause irreparable damage to the enemy along with military operations at the front.

    Psychic Predictions

    Throughout history, there have been many prophets who predicted the end of mankind. One of them is Nostradamus. As for world wars, he accurately predicted the first two. As for the Third World War, he said that it would happen through the fault of the Antichrist, who would stop at nothing and be terribly merciless.

    The next psychic whose prophecies have come true is Vanga. She told future generations that World War III would start with a small state in Asia. The fastest is Syria. The reason for the hostilities will be an attack on four heads of state. The consequences of the war will be horrendous.

    The famous psychic P. Globa also said his words regarding the Third World War. His forecasts can be called optimistic. He said that humanity will end World War III if it prevents military action in Iran.

    The psychics listed above are not the only ones who predicted World War III. Similar predictions were made:

    • A. Ilmaier;
    • Mulchiasl;
    • Edgar Cayce;
    • G. Rasputin;
    • Bishop Anthony;
    • Saint Hilarion and others

    September 21 is the International Day of Peace and the day of the universal ceasefire and non-violence. But today, almost four dozen hot spots have been recorded in the world. Where and for what humanity is fighting today - in the material TUT.BY.

    Gradation of conflicts:

    Armed conflict of low intensity- confrontation for religious, ethnic, political and other reasons. It is characterized by a low level of attacks and victims - less than 50 per year.

    Armed conflict of moderate intensity- episodic terrorist attacks and military operations with the use of weapons. It is characterized by an average level of victims - up to 500 per year.

    Armed conflict of high intensity- constant hostilities with the use of conventional weapons and weapons of mass destruction (with the exception of nuclear weapons); involvement of foreign states and coalitions. Such conflicts are often accompanied by massive and numerous terrorist attacks. It is characterized by a high level of victims - from 500 per year or more.

    Europe, Russia and Transcaucasia

    Conflict in Donbas

    Status: regular clashes between separatists and the Ukrainian military, despite the ceasefire

    Start: year 2014

    Number of dead: from April 2014 to August 2017 - more than 10 thousand people

    City of Debaltseve, Donbass, Ukraine. February 20, 2015. Photo: Reuters

    The armed conflict in Donbas began in the spring of 2014. Pro-Russian activists, encouraged by Russia's annexation of Crimea and dissatisfied with the new government in Kiev, proclaimed the creation of the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics. After an attempt by the new Ukrainian authorities to suppress the demonstrations by force in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions, a full-scale armed conflict began, which has been dragging on for three years.

    The situation in Donbass is on the world agenda as Kiev accuses Moscow of helping the self-proclaimed republics, including through direct military intervention. The West supports these accusations, Moscow consistently denies them.

    The conflict moved from the active phase to the phase of medium intensity after the launch of "" and the beginning.

    But in the east of Ukraine, they are still shooting, people are dying from both sides.

    Caucasus and Nagorno-Karabakh

    There are two more hotspots of instability in the region, which are classified as armed conflicts.

    The war in the early 1990s between Azerbaijan and Armenia led to the formation of the unrecognized Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (). Large-scale hostilities were last recorded here, then about 200 people died on both sides. But local armed clashes in which Azerbaijanis and Armenians perish, .


    Despite all the efforts of Russia, the situation in the Caucasus remains extremely difficult: counter-terrorist operations are constantly carried out in Dagestan, Chechnya and Ingushetia, Russian special services report on the elimination of gangs and terrorist cells, but the flow of messages does not decrease.


    Middle East and North Africa

    The whole region in 2011 was shocked by "". From then to the present, Syria, Libya, Yemen and Egypt have been hotspots in the region. In addition, the armed confrontation in Iraq and Turkey has been going on for many years.

    War in Syria

    Status: constant fighting

    Start: 2011

    Number of dead: from March 2011 to August 2017 - from 330,000 to

    After the US invasion in 2003 and the collapse of Saddam Hussein's regime, Iraq began a civil war and rebellion against the coalition government. And in 2014, part of the country's territory was seized by militants of the Islamic State. Now a motley company is fighting the terrorists: the Iraqi army, supported by US troops, Kurds, local Sunni tribes and Shiite formations. In the summer of this year, the largest city under the control of ISIS, is currently fighting for control of the province of Anbar.

    Radical Islamist groups are fighting Baghdad not only on the battlefield, but in Iraq constantly with numerous casualties.

    Libya

    Status: regular clashes between different factions

    Start: 2011

    Aggravation: year 2014

    Number of dead: from February 2011 to August 2017 — t 15,000 to 30,000


    The conflict in Libya also began with the "Arab Spring". In 2011, the United States and NATO supported the protesters against the Gaddafi regime with airstrikes. The revolution won, Muammar Gaddafi was killed by the crowd, but the conflict did not die out. In 2014, a new civil war broke out in Libya, and since then dual power has reigned in the country - in the east of the country, in the city of Tobruk, the parliament elected by the people sits, and in the west, in the capital Tripoli, the Government of National Accord, formed with the support of the UN and Europe, is ruled by Fayez Sarraj. In addition, there is a third force - the Libyan National Army, which is at war with the militants of the "Islamic State" and other radical groups. The situation is complicated by the internecine strife of local tribes.

    Yemen

    Status: regular missile and air strikes, clashes between various factions

    Start: year 2014

    Number of dead: from February 2011 to September 2017 - more than 10 thousand people


    Yemen is another country that has been in conflict since the Arab Spring in 2011. President Ali Abdullah Saleh, who ruled Yemen for 33 years, handed over his powers to the vice-president of the country, Abd Rabbo Mansour al-Hadi, who won early elections a year later. However, he failed to retain power in the country: in 2014, a civil war broke out between Shiite rebels (Houthis) and the Sunni government. Al-Hadi was supported by Saudi Arabia, which, together with other Sunni monarchies and with the consent of the United States, is helping with both ground operations and air strikes. Former President Saleh, who is supported by some of the Shiite rebels and Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, has also joined the fight.

    The armed confrontation between the Turkish government and the PKK fighters, who are fighting for the creation of Kurdish autonomy within Turkey, has been going on since 1984 to the present. In the past two years, the conflict has escalated: the Turkish authorities accused the Kurds of several, after which they carried out sweeps.

    Knife Intifada and Lebanon

    There are several other hotspots in the region, which military experts refer to as "armed conflicts" of low intensity.

    First of all, this is the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the next aggravation of which was called "". Between 2015 and 2016, there were more than 250 attacks by Islamic radicals armed with cold weapons against Israelis. As a result, 36 Israelis, 5 foreigners and 246 Palestinians were killed. Knife and screwdriver attacks have faded this year, but armed attacks continue: in July, three Arabs attacked one Israeli police officer on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.

    Another smoldering hotspot is Lebanon. The smoldering conflict in Lebanon is at a low intensity only due to the emphasized neutrality of the authorities regarding the civil war in Syria and the related conflict in Lebanon between Sunnis and Shiites. The Shiites of Lebanon and the Hezbollah group support the pro-Assad coalition, the Sunnis oppose, and the radical Islamist groups oppose the Lebanese authorities. Periodically there are armed clashes and terrorist attacks occur: the largest of them in recent times was a double terrorist attack in Beirut in 2015, as a result of which.

    Asia and the Pacific

    Afghanistan

    Status: constant terrorist attacks and armed clashes

    Beginning of the conflict: 1978

    Escalation of the conflict: year 2001

    Number of dead: from 2001 to August 2017 - more than 150,000 people


    Medics at a hospital in Kabul examine a boy who was injured in the September 15, 2017, attack. On this day in Kabul, a mined tank truck was blown up at a checkpoint leading to the diplomatic quarter.

    After the 9/11 attacks, NATO and the US military contingent entered Afghanistan. The Taliban regime was overthrown, but a military conflict began in the country: the government of Afghanistan, with the support of NATO and US forces, is fighting the Taliban and Islamist groups associated with al-Qaeda and ISIS.

    Despite the fact that 13,000 NATO and US troops still remain in Afghanistan, and discussions are underway about whether it should be, terrorist activity in the country remains high: dozens of people die in the republic every month.

    The smoldering Kashmir conflict and the internal problems of India and Pakistan

    In 1947, two states were formed on the territory of the former British India - India and Pakistan. The division took place on a religious basis: the provinces with a predominantly Muslim population went to Pakistan, and with a Hindu majority - to India. But not everywhere: despite the fact that the majority of the population of Kashmir were Muslims, this region was annexed to India.


    Residents of the province of Kashmir stand on the rubble of three houses destroyed by artillery strikes by the Pakistani military. This strike was carried out in response to the shelling of Pakistani territories by Indian troops, who, in turn, responded to the attack by militants, in their opinion, who arrived from Pakistan. Photo: Reuters

    Since Kashmir is a disputed territory between the two countries and the cause of three Indo-Pakistani wars and several smaller military conflicts. According to various sources, over the past 70 years, he claimed about 50 thousand lives. In April 2017, the United Nations Institute for Disarmament Research published an annual report that mentioned the Kashmir conflict as one of those that could provoke a military conflict with the use of nuclear weapons. Both India and Pakistan are members of the "club of nuclear powers" with an arsenal of several dozen nuclear warheads.

    In addition to the general conflict, each of the countries has several hot spots with varying degrees of intensity, all of which are recognized by the international community as military conflicts.

    There are three of them in Pakistan: separatist movements in the western province Balochistan, the fight against the Tehrik-e Taliban Pakistan group in an unrecognized state Waziristan and clashes between Pakistani security forces and various militant groups in the semi-autonomous region" Federally Administered Tribal Areas» (FATA). Radicals from these regions attack government buildings, law enforcement officers and stage terrorist attacks.

    There are four hotspots in India. Three Indian states Assam, Nagaland and Manipur due to religious-ethnic clashes, nationalist and separatist movements are strong, which do not disdain terrorist attacks and hostage-taking.

    And in 20 of the 28 Indian states, there are Naxalites - Maoist militant groups that demand the creation of free self-governing zones, where they (well, of course!) Will build real and correct communism. Naxalites practice attacks on officials and government troops and arrange more than half of the attacks in India. The country's authorities have officially declared the Naxalites terrorists and call them the main internal threat to the country's security.

    Myanmar

    Not so long ago, the media, which usually does not pay attention to third world countries, focused attention.


    In this country, in August, the religious-ethnic conflict between the inhabitants of the state of Rakhine, the Arakanese Buddhists and the Rohingya Muslims, escalated. Hundreds of separatists from the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ASRA) attacked 30 police strongholds and killed 15 police and military personnel. After that, the troops launched an anti-terrorist operation: in just one week, 370 Rohingya separatists were killed by the military, and 17 local residents were accidentally killed. How many people died in Myanmar in September is still unknown. Hundreds of thousands of Rohingyas have fled to Bangladesh, causing a humanitarian crisis.

    Southern Thailand

    A number of radical Islamic organizations advocate the independence of the southern provinces of Yala, Pattani and Narathiwat from Thailand and demand either the creation of an independent Islamic state or the inclusion of the provinces into Malaysia.

    Bangkok responds to the demands of the Islamists, reinforced by attacks and, with counter-terrorism operations and suppression of local unrest. More than 6,000 people have died in the 13 years of escalation of the conflict.

    Uyghur conflict

    Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region (XUAR, Chinese abbreviation Xinjiang) is located in northwestern China. It occupies a sixth of the territory of all of China, and the majority of its inhabitants are Uighurs - a Muslim people, whose representatives are far from always enthusiastic about the national policy of the country's communist leadership. In Beijing, Xinjiang is perceived as a region of "three hostile forces" - terrorism, religious extremism and separatism.

    The Chinese authorities have reason to do so - the active terrorist group East Turkistan Islamic Movement, whose goal is to create an Islamic state of China, is responsible for riots and terrorist attacks in Xinjiang: over the past 10 years, more than 1,000 people have died in the region.

    Now the conflict is characterized as sluggish, but Beijing has already been threatened with an escalation of the situation after the Chinese authorities imposed a ban on wearing beards, hijabs and performing marriage and mourning ceremonies according to religious customs instead of secular ones. In addition, Uyghurs were urged to sell alcohol and tobacco in shops and not to publicly celebrate religious holidays.

    Armed conflict in the Philippines

    For more than four decades, conflict has continued in the Philippines between Manila and armed groups of Muslim separatists in the south of the country, who traditionally advocate the creation of an independent Islamic state. The situation escalated after the positions of the Islamic State in the Middle East were significantly shaken: many Islamists rushed to Southeast Asia. Two large groups, Abu Sayyaf and Maute, swore allegiance to IS and captured the city of Marawi on the Philippine island of Mindanao in May. Government troops still cannot drive the militants out of the city. Also, radical Islamists organize armed attacks not only in the south, but also.


    According to the latest data, from May to September of this year in the Philippines, a total of 45 civilians and 136 soldiers and policemen were killed as a result of terrorist actions.

    North and South America

    Mexico

    In 2016, Mexico ranked second in terms of the number of deaths in the list of states where armed clashes continue, second only to Syria. The nuance is that officially there is no war on the territory of Mexico, but for more than ten years there has been a battle between the country's authorities and drug cartels. The latter are still fighting among themselves, and there is a reason - the income from the sale of drugs in the United States alone is up to 64 billion dollars a year. And another 30 billion dollars a year drug cartels receive from the sale of drugs to Europe.

    The world community calls this confrontation in Mexico an armed conflict with a high degree of intensity, and justifiably: even in the most “peaceful” year of 2014, more than 14,000 people died, and since 2006, more than 106,000 people have become victims of the “drug war”.

    "Northern Triangle"

    Drugs come to Mexico from South America. All transit routes pass through the three countries of the "Northern Triangle" in Central America: Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala.

    The Northern Triangle is one of the most violent regions in the world, where powerful transnational criminal organizations have flourished, many with links to Mexican drug traffickers; local organized crime groups; gangs like the 18th Street Gang (M-18) and pandillas street gangs. All these groups and clans are constantly waging war among themselves for the redistribution of spheres of influence.

    The governments of Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala have declared war on both organized and street crime. This decision was strongly supported in the United States, where 8.5% of the population of the Northern Triangle immigrated in recent years due to high levels of violence and corruption.

    The countries of the "Northern Triangle" are also recognized as participants in the armed conflict with a high degree of intensity.

    Colombia

    The confrontation between the Colombian authorities and the left-wing extremist Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) lasted more than 50 years. Over the years, about 220 thousand people died, about 7 million lost their homes. In 2016, between the authorities of Colombia and FARC was signed. The rebels from the National Liberation Army of Colombia (ELN) refused to join the treaty, which, together with the problem of large-scale drug trafficking, leaves the military conflict in the country in the status of “medium intensity”.


    Africa: Sub-Saharan Africa

    IN Somalia For more than 20 years, lawlessness has reigned: neither the government, nor the UN peacekeepers, nor the military intervention of neighboring countries can stop the anarchy. The radical Islamist group Al-Shabaab is actively operating on the territory of Somalia, and coastal areas began to earn money by piracy.

    Radical Islamists terrorize and Nigeria. Boko Haram militants control approximately 20% of the territory in the north of the country. They are being fought by the Nigerian army, assisted by troops from neighboring Cameroon, Chad and Niger.

    In addition to jihadists, there is another conflict zone in the country in the Niger Delta. For more than 20 years, Nigerian government forces and mercenaries from oil companies, on the one hand, and Ogoni, Igbo, and Ijo ethnic groups, on the other, have been trying to establish control over the oil-bearing regions for more than 20 years with varying success.

    In another country, the youngest of the recognized states in the world - South Sudan, - the civil war began two years after independence, in 2013, and despite the presence of 12,000 UN peacekeepers. Formally, it goes between government troops and the rebels, but in fact - between representatives of the dominant Dinka people (President Salva Kiir belongs to it) and the Nuer tribe, from which Vice President Riek Machar comes.

    Restless and in Sudan. In the Darfur region in the west of the country, an interethnic conflict has been ongoing since 2003, resulting in an armed confrontation between the central government, the informal pro-government Arab Janjaweed armed groups and local rebel groups. According to various estimates, from 200 to 400 thousand people died as a result of the Darfur conflict, 2.5 million people became refugees.

    armed conflict in Mali between government forces, the Tuareg, various separatist groups and radical Islamists flared up in early 2012. The starting point of the events was a military coup, as a result of which the current head of state, Amadou Touré, was overthrown. To maintain order in the country there are UN peacekeepers and the French contingent, but, despite this, hostage-taking is constantly in Mali.


    in the eastern provinces Democratic Republic of the Congo Despite all the efforts of the authorities and peacekeepers, the situation has remained tense for many years. Various Islamist and Christian groups, armed formations of local tribes and gangs from neighboring states operate on the territory of the country. All of them are attracted by the colossal reserves of rich minerals: gold, diamonds, copper, tin, tantalum, tungsten, more than half of the world's proven reserves of uranium. According to the UN Panel of Experts on the DRC, illegal gold mining "definitely remains the main source of funding for armed groups."

    IN Central African Republic (CAR) in 2013, Muslim rebels overthrew the Christian president, after which sectarian strife began in the country. Since 2014, a UN peacekeeping mission has been in the country.

    Global military conflict. Today, questions like “whether there will be a Third World War and when it will start” are no longer fantastic inventions, but quite real fears of citizens.

    In addition, now, given the growing tension on the world stage, such issues are more relevant than ever. All prerequisites in the world lead to a new vast war. It would seem that in our time the word "Third World War" no one will ever pronounce, because this very concept seems to have been erased with the liquidation of the "evil empire".

    And, it seems, there is no one with whom to wage a continental struggle (as it was in World War II) or a nuclear one (it is assumed that this is how the Third will take place). Someone thinks in images and imagines the Third World War like this: trenches, cracks in the black, incinerated earth, the “enemy” is somewhere beyond the horizon ...

    These ideas are written off and formulated on the basis of many films and stories about the terrible and so distant war of our fathers and grandfathers. This is the Great Patriotic War. Or World War II. But . Many are convinced that a future war is already underway. The media, at least daily and tirelessly, with the importunity of a bored fly, tell us about it. The so-called information battle.

    So who are we fighting and why? History repeats itself, bringing to the world a new global conflict over land ownership. However, now this land, in addition to the population and territories, must have another important quality: resources. Gas, coal, oil. This raw material is the engine of all the economies of the world. And the central actors in a future war, according to experts, will be "sworn friends" - two powers that have every opportunity to mutually destroy each other and the entire planet, using their stocks of nuclear weapons.

    Where to expect war

    Do not think that the threat should be expected from Europe. She is busy with deep introspection and elimination of "economic fleas". Europe poses no danger to Russia. The true enemy will come from afar, he will come from across the ocean.

    It is unlikely that anyone will be surprised by the assumption, because ever since the Fulton speech in 1946, the future enemy has been clearly defined and his name is no secret to anyone in Russia. It would seem, well, what does America care about us? What will Russia do wrong again?

    What benefit will the United States want to extract and what will it try to teach the “simple Russian peasant”? The answer is simple - the resources and, perhaps, the ambitions of an equally powerful country that does not tolerate competition. Also, one should not forget the "peacemaker" represented by the EU. Now this peacemaker is more like a provocateur who cheerfully dances to the tune of the United States.

    As if echoing from the countries of Europe, a repetition of the exclamations of the United States is heard - sanctions, sanctions, sanctions again and ... the Third World War. The global integration of societies and economies has led to the wide scale and inevitability of a new war that will engulf the whole world. The ability to receive news practically "first hand", online or thanks to satellite television, has given humanity an amazing privilege to learn everything much faster than a dozen years ago.

    It is worth noting, however, that the flow of information pouring completely discouraged people from the desire to critically evaluate and analyze the events and facts provided. After all, for most users, a string of democratic revolutions, coup d'état and local military skirmishes are simply disparate parts of world politics that will eventually become history. But is it?

    This is a question that will remain unanswered. Whether we believe in Freemasons, "world puppeteers" and "almighty rulers of the entire planet", whether we rely on the sanity and prudence of the rulers in using or not using nuclear weapons - all this does not affect the events taking place in the world. It is quite possible that the Third World War is just being conducted only on computer monitors, televisions and in the headphones of radio lovers.

    But the fact that it is already beginning, unleashing, as if in a spiral, a global conflict is a fact. At the same time, armed conflicts of a local nature in different parts of the world clearly tell us that the Third World War is not far off, the only question remains - when will it begin.

    It should also be understood that this will not simply be a military conflict on a global scale, but, quite possibly, a real nuclear war, the result of which could be the almost complete extinction of mankind. In accordance with the conspiracy theory, the Freemasons intend to reduce the number of people on the planet to 1 billion.

    According to members of the secret society, it is precisely this number of inhabitants that will be optimal for reasonable consumption and complete control of natural resources. In any case, the use of biological weapons to reduce the population is too dangerous. We must not forget that substances are capable of mutating and, quite possibly, the Masons themselves will not be able to protect themselves from their own “seeds of evil”, since they will not have a vaccine.

    Thus, it is the nuclear Third World War that is the most considered by experts option for the development of further events on the part of the Freemasons with their desire to restore world order with total control.

    World War III: Clairvoyant Predictions

    In the conditions of the world, frozen on the threshold of something global and frightening, people listen to everything that gives even the slightest bit believable picture of the future. It seems that the war that will engulf the countries is inevitable.

    Look only at the confrontation between different civilizations, radical ideologies and the threat of terrorism. Do not forget about natural disasters and catastrophes that happened through the fault of mankind itself.

    They also provoked a struggle for the necessary resources - energy sources and clean water. Both today and many years ago, sages, scientists and amateurs tried to decipher the ancient records, predictions and prophecies of famous psychics and sorcerers in order to find answers to many questions of interest to the people. The most important question to which one would like to find a soothing answer is whether there will be a Third World War.

    Hermit Kasyan predicted a tectonic catastrophe, after which people would pour into the surviving territories in hungry crowds, causing even greater destruction, carrying the final death for the peoples.

    According to Alois Ihlmeier at the very beginning of the Third World War, bacteriological and chemical weapons will be used, atomic rockets will be launched. The East will declare war on Europe. Diseases, as if from a cornucopia, will begin to fall on people, producing terrible, unprecedented epidemics. Due to the movement of tectonic plates, many territories will become uninhabitable and this will cause the attack of Muslims and Asians. The seer also says that Syria will become the key either to peace or to the start of a world war.

    Forest Seer Mulchiazl, in turn, noted that the main sign of the coming war would be "construction fever" - like bees in a hive, peoples would erect huge honeycombs, filling the planet. It is quite possible that the prophet had in mind the preoccupation of mankind with the material side of life more than the spiritual.

    The great prophet Nostradamus in his quatrains he wrote that the war would begin in the 21st century and last for 27 years. This bloody and destructive war will come from the East.

    Blind clairvoyant Vanga said that a global war would start from Syria, spread to Europe and move on. A massive battle is brewing between the Christian and Muslim worlds.

    Grigory Rasputin spoke of three snakes that would bring great destruction. There have already been two world wars, which means that humanity is waiting for new tests. The situation is truly threatening. But, despite the fact that the whole world is now asking the question: when will the war, we must not forget that it, quite possibly, has already begun. And the war began in our souls.

    Now material goods have been put in the first place, and not the laughter of a child or the smile of a mother. Sincerely love, sympathize, help has long been out of date. But if we begin to think more often about our own souls and the common good, perhaps we will be able to avoid a bloody slaughter.
