Many of the countries on the Global stage are very unstable. Some of these countries can no longer obtain credit or goods. Will this result in wars? Looking at history I think it is a high possibility. Countries in severe trouble. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/fina ... ltics.html

If China doesn't back down from its efforts to privatize banks & industries, there will be a war. A capitalist movement spreading west from China would cause all our banks to fail, economic crisis, undo all the stability socialism has brought us in the last year. Your government can't allow that to happen. We'll beat back the capitalist threat, starting in Afghanistan, South Korea, Vietnam & keep our banks functioning.

ok, that just doesn't make much sense to me.

As for the original question, we have spoken and speculated about this a lot before and we can only hope it won't come to that. As for the chances of the world turning into flames, the chances are mixed IMO.
