I'm going to go through most of this thread, I hope half way down the AS isn't too much of a bump =(. I am sort of half way writing up a ww3 theory I will post it when I am up to the task of finishing that thing.
Why do you say France and England?, they don't really have many nukes.
it the ice caps ever melted there would be a war and im positive China would be on its own side
Russian and Chinese ties are increasing, "Although the summit meeting between Russia and the United States this past week provided few if any answers about a continued peace between the two nations, relations between China and Russia are moving ahead at gripping speed."

Well if you are asking a free for all, it would most likely America. We have the force to defend at home while still being able to attack outside.
There is very little chance it would be a free for all, yeah America is strong but other countries can hold there own and attack, mainly because they are smaller and have less ground to cover, but America is quite large so it would have a harder time than say, the UK.
Russia's military is in disarray.
right......... why do so many people believe this, just because they are weaker than they were during the cold war you assume that they are weak and their military is so unorganised.
The British might not have large numbers either, but their military has been producing extremely well-trained troops in recent years.
WTF!!! In recent years? Huh? Here is one incident in WW2 (SAS)
"Near Auxerre, with two men, Captain Derrick Harrison stormed into a village square crowded with SS men,
Interrupting the execution of 20 hostages. His Vickers machine gun jammed; his driver dead, he escaped leaving 60 enemy bodies in
the smouldering wreckage of their vehicles."
Another one
"The SAS operated in Europe as well; in one operation (codenamed Houndsmith), 144 men were parachuted with jeeps and supplies into an area close to Dijon, France. All told, the SAS inflicted 7,733 German casualties in Europe. 4,784 prisoners were captured and 700 vehicles were destroyed or captured. 164 railways were cut, seven trains were destroyed and thirty-three were derailed. The SAS was also used to "mop up" German war criminals. They hunted down head SS and Gestapo agents and brought them before the War Crimes Tribune."
There was an event that 104 British soldiers took on 4,000 Zulu warriors and forced them to retreat

Even further back was the new model army.
The Brits has had one of the best or the best Armies throughout quite a large portion of history (not just recently).
If it were to save lives, like what America did to Japan, they would, I'm sure of it...Unless they're heartless bastards
Just to save American lives, Japanese civilians aren't considered as 'lives'.
Russia wouldnt really be a threat if we were fighting them (we as in the US) and im sure the US and their allies would win basically because we are the strongest nation in the world.
Doesn't matter, Russia is a threat to ANY country, no matter how strong.
And i dont really like that one source because its a biased news site.
Almost every website is biased that is not a viable argument.
Yes, let's all state our own weaknesses and faults! That way some random country can come in and exploit them and kick our ass.
It never gave specifics of the weakness’ of the fighters.
Also, the USA if it was in war with Russia, no help or anything, USA would win, hands down.
That maybe true but you don't really know why, you haven't given reasons like Otto.
I don't understand what you just said in the slightest...
Ever heard of friendly fire? America has quite a bad rep for that.
If English isn't complex, then why the hell are you struggling to even make sense?
You dolt, that is the most stupid argument I have seen you come out with. That is his 2nd or 3rd language, and it isn't bad, you try speaking Russian without any mistakes.
Too smart for me. I'm fluent in two languages as well and I don't suck at spelling, like you.
Decided to use spell checker for the sake of this argument huh? What is your second language huh? I don't see you using it to make it more convenient for other people to understand you.
And he's dumb? I am really amazed that your couple of line spammish arguments about who is dumber has escaped a spelling error.
