Is this the start of World War 3?

End times? No. WW III not just yet. Close, but not yet. Still hinges on what happens with North Korea, China, Russia, and Japan, and what happens with Iran. Also ... Pakistan and India are still at play.

Technically it is already World War 3. Countries from 4 different continents are involved. North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia. However, it is not the end of Times. Bush is trying to do the right thing. It will not be the end of Times because of the MAD theory. (Mutually Assured Destruction). Iran and North Korea know that if they launch missiles, so will America, and so will Russia, and we have all of these automatic timers. Basically, one nuclear launch would destroy the world. These rich oil leaders are too greedy to die. All they want is money, and want to be able to use the atomic bomb as trading power.

World War III started the day World War II ended. The question should be, are we still fighting World War III or has this evolved to version IV, V or VI? Depends on how you tally the antagonists fighting globally.

As to the end of times, Jesus said only his Father knows that date (Mark 13-32). Anyone who so much as suggests to you otherwise is Not To Be Trusted. Trust Jesus, remain watchful and prepared. That is what He told us to do.

No, it is not WW III. Of course it is not the end of times. Does the Bible not say, "no one will know the time, not even the Son of Man, but only the Father which is in Heaven." How could one think it would be so easy to figure out the ending time???? Not to mention that the Bible states, "like a thief in the night."

I was going to say ---that WW3 actually started up some time ago and is just simmering now before the boil

And then bungiebabe just went off like a rocket and decided to write her doctorate thesis

I think this was the girl that gave our commencement address in college !!!

Nostradamus had a prediction that said the invasion of Islamic countries would bring the end of the world

WW III has begun it is the time for our nation to become proactive instead of reactive. The fate of the union is at stake.

United we stand, divided we fall

to be truthful no i don't think it's the end of time or ww3 theres still gonna be a lot of time til than maybe 30-40 years china is gonna be the end of us all.

I think it is the ending of the begin

I believe it started in 1979.

When WWIII Started****1979

>America's military had been decimated and down sized/right sized since the

>Then in August 1985 a Volkswagen loaded with explosives is driven into the

>

>Fifty-nine days later in 1985 a cruise ship, the Achille Lauro, is hijacked

>

>The following month, February 1993, a group of terrorists are arrested

>after a rented van packed with explosives is driven into the underground

> Then in November 1995 a car bomb explodes at a US military complex in

>

>A few months later in June of 1996, another truck bomb explodes only 35

>500. The terrorists are getting braver and smarter as they see that America

>does not respond decisively.

>

>They move to coordinate their attacks in simultaneous attacks on two US

>embassies in Kenya and Tanzania . These attacks were planned with

>

>The USS Cole was docked in the port of Aden, Yemen for refueling on 12

>we sent the FBI to investigate the crime and went back to sleep.

>And of course you know the events of 11 September 2001. Most Americans
