    But it's hardly a war, it's just national security sharing intelligence and nabbing terror cells here and there, calling it World War III is a little over the top.

    I'm not saying it is World War, but you could technically call it that. With all the global support and all the locations in which it is being fought, I could see how someone could call it that. However, I do not think it is World War III.

    Re: Bush says fight against terror is 'World War III'

    It's not a war, because there's not really any battles, or warzones. It's like a global event, but war isn't the appropriate term to describe it.

    Re: Bush says fight against terror is 'World War III'

    Because there's no countries waging was on us, just a few small factions casuing trouble. I would hardly call that a war. Thousand of people die every day for various reasons, that doesn't justify calling this a war.

    Re: Bush says fight against terror is 'World War III'

    hahaha, calling it a world war would be like saying steve nash deserves the MVP.compare it to the world war II.. MILLIONS of people died. millions. we not only dropped a nuclear weapon on hiroshima. but hitler tried erasing a whole race of people w/ the holocaust.right now we are just trying to get a couple of troublemakers back for bombing our building. it's not a world war, not yet.**EDIT**haha check out the picture they used of bush..[​IMG]they like making him look like an idiot. hahaha

Technology is so much greater that having millions die in a war is improbable in today's time. That was the norm back then, today it is not.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Because there's no countries waging was on us, just a few small factions casuing trouble.

You have a large group of people who believe in a certain ideology going up against another large group of people who believe in another. There is no doubt that we are in a time of war right now with the terrorists. War is changing all the time. You must get the idea that a war can only be between two countries out of your head. That is simply false.
