Google searches for the phrase “World War 3” spiked after word of the United States-led strike on Damascus and Homs in Syria. As the globe lingers on the precipice of a war, and the mainstream media glorifies the beginnings of what could be the third world war, many are not so calm.
The last time Google searches for World War 3 spiked this dramatically was when Trump ordered a missile strike on a Syrian airfield which was allegedly used to launch the Khan Sheikhoun chemical attack, which killed dozens of civilians in April 2017. The U.N. blames Syria’s Bashar al-Assad government for the Khan Sheikhoun attack, yet there’s not much evidence still that the Syrian government used chemical weapons on their own people in either attack.
According to Newsweek, the spike in Google searches is due to fears of an actual war. U.S. allies U.K. and France joined the strikes on what the coalition said were chemical weapons facilities belonging to the Bashar al-Assad regime. The strikes took place in the early hours of Saturday morning (April 14), Syria time, and were designed to punish and deter the use of banned weapons.
Russia, which is backing the Syrian government with troops on the ground, told the UN it is being “threatened” and warned the U.S. and its allies of “consequences” for striking Syria. Russia has vowed retaliation before the strikes took place, yet it’s hard to say if Putin will follow through.
Trump tweeted about the strikes the next morning, rattling some of the more leery civilians. “A perfectly executed strike last night,” Trump tweeted on Saturday morning. “Thank you to France and the United Kingdom for their wisdom and the power of their fine military. Could not have had a better result. Mission accomplished!”

Not long after the tweet, the mainstream media helped ramp up fears of war by glorifying the attack, while condoning Trump’s use of wordage.

While some don’t think a large scale war is possible, the more logical and sound minded folks understand that this strike did pose a serious risk to world peace. Attacking Syria always risks hitting the Russian military because of its large presence in the country and triggering an escalation that, in the worst case scenario, leads to a direct conflict between Russia and the U.S., the world’s two most heavily armed nuclear powers. In the best case scenario, we’ll be left with a second cold war, one much “colder” than the last.
French Minister of the Armed Forces Florence Parly said after the strikes that the allies “are not looking for a confrontation and refuse any logic of escalation. That is why, with our allies, we ensured that the Russians were notified ahead of time.

Personally, I believe WW III will be cyber. What better way to hit the majority of the country, or that matter majority of countries? While we have been playing around, other countries are working hard at preparing for a major attack on the US.
The US needs to spend much more on defense….oops offense.
GTFOOH
I hate to say it but we will lose WW3. obamanation badly weakened our military and replaced key leaders. We will be attacked from within and without simultaneously and the traitors in our midst will do their part also. There can be no New World Order until we are destroyed. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t fight though. My families survival is paramount to me and will certainly guide my actions. Just remember that the government is not your friend or your savior.
The US military has 800 bases around the world while for example Russia has 2. The US spends more on its military then the next 10 nations friend and potential foe combined. The NWO, Power Elite or whatever name is used needs the US military as its global enforcer. They don’t want “We The People” to have any potential say in its composition and use. Over decades of conditioned abandonment of the Constitution and Bill Of Rights that has substituted blind obedience for patriotism they have effectively achieved this goal.
That’s why We the People will lose the war. What’s left after they kill the patriots and Christians will be sheeple and scum ass foreigners that will bow to their masters.
Ehhh just wipe humanity off the planet. Humans are the only animal that doesn’t live in balance (by a long shot) and destroys the hell out of it’s environment and overpopulates. By the hand of man or the hand of nature, it’s going to happen! Just get it done before we kill the rest of life here with us…
Go to war with the Russians and the entire world, combatant, non combatant loses.
Russia has two bases outside their country?????
Russia has 200 bases for their fake troops based in eastern Ukraine alone – Poland would have 2000 Russian bases back in their country if they ever so slightly let their guard down – likewise Finland, Norway, Sweden, Bulgaria, Hungary, the Balkans, Germany, France, and every other country within tank cruising range ….
Putin is another Hitler without the good sausage ….
The democratically Ukrainian government was overthrown in a western coup, largely US inspired (with SOROS help) and had its gold looted. The eastern part of the Ukraine is Russian in language and culture. The US dominates the world for multi-national business and banking.

The US has left chaos in the wake of Iraq and Libya where US Air Power destroyed a country with the highest standard of living in Africa intentionally aiding Islamic Fundamentalists, the “supposed” enemy. Do you denny that the US used its Air Power to help an Islamic Fundamentalist takeover of Libya? Syria protects Christians while US backed Islamics ISIS, cut off their heads.

The above mimics Hitler in result.
I’m sorry Trump. I voted for you and all; but, you’re a moron. Your waste of taxpayer dollars, tempting fate to cause a war no one could win, total caving in to the swamp pressures from a bunch of war-mongering idiots and financial moguls, bending over for the country of your daughter’s choice of stud-stock…. shows you to just be one loud-mouthed total tool of all those you said you’d destroy in Washington D.C. What? You want kudos for doing this? Try doing what you promised us – the Americans who voted for you. Get our boys and girls home, set to rights your own Justice Dept. and the problems right here. Stop falling for every sob-story coming out of that den of liars that is the Middle-East.
“We have no business getting involved, no business in other countries”, Donald J Trump, the War-Monger President.

” the more logical and sound minded folks understand that this strike did pose a serious risk to world peace.”
But none of us thought googling “WWIII” would yield any useful result.
