World War III

It wouldnt really be a awr anyway, it would just be a loada missiles flying through the air, there would be no need for soldiers etc.

Therefore it will be quite boring and an uneventful way to die :8

What do you mean 'We'. The American's want to build missile shields and interceptors in Europe to protect themselves from any threats from Russia and the Middle East, it'll also protect Europe but that's more of a bonus, it would certainly protect the UK as the majority are being going to be built in Eastern Europe, close to Russia and the Middle East. One of the main reasons for it is the threat from Iran. This worries the Russian's and they also think the American's doesn't need to interfere with Europe, it could also potentially ruin or interfere with Russian's interceptor systems and pose a threat. I can see why the Russian's oppose it, but do they have any more right to Europe than the American's? No but it will protect the UK so I'm not very concerned at all.

I'm sure the American's would react in a very similar way if the Russian's were to put missile interceptors in Cuba, Mexico or Canada.

I actually don't think there will be a World War III, because i think most of the American soldiers are in Iraq (I think), fighting against the Talibans (I think).

If America go to war, England have to join.

First of all, around 127,000 American Troops are in Iraq and there's around 1,055,000 American troops in total, roughly 1/10th in Iraq. The English aren't an army, it's the British Army or often the UK. It's the American's and a few British that are fighting against some rebel insurgents trying to rule the country. The Taliban are linked with Al Qaeda, that's who they're fighting in Afghanistan.

This isn't history as such. Military knowledge. You usually get people posting on things they clearly have no idea about. However Jordy knows what hes talking about..

Not to mention the amount of trade we give them. Everything I own seems to be "Made in China."

The other week I passed RAF Menwith Hill (which for people who don't know its a RAF base with entirely American staff as it is leased to the US Army but it's located in England) and there was a fella starving himself in a tent outside the camp to protest it. I think it's because Menwith Hill has infared receivers and is going to play a role in the missile defense system.

If there was the slightest whiff of a conflict, it would be talked about, not a few shots fired at them... America ask for a war anyway with Russia, by building pointless missile shields. That's just like throwing stones at a lion in the zoo, sooner or later they'll get frustrated :P

China have always wanted UK & USA land.

Because the US don't need one and I think Russia are of the opinion that missile sheild is to be used against them for some reason. The US are a terrible race, I pity Canada!

Sounds like RAF Lakenheath too, but they're more of the US Aircraft than a part of the missile sheild.

What's this about China wanting UK and US land? It's not very different to the land they currently own :S
