Australia & more to join battle against ISIS
Quote:
Kerry also spoke of the need for international partners to support the new government in Iraq, not only militarily but with humanitarian aid, addressing illicit funding stream reaching ISIS and stopping the flow of foreign fighters.
Kerry said efforts to move forward the coalition against ISIS would continue Monday in Paris, where France is hosting an international conference on the crisis in Iraq.
The Australian government is preparing to deploy up to 10 aircraft, including up to eight combat aircraft, to the United Arab Emirates in response to a U.S. request to contribute to the coalition, the Australian prime minister's office said Sunday.
"We are not deploying combat troops but contributing to international efforts to prevent the humanitarian crisis from deepening," Prime Minister Tony Abbott's office said in a statement.
The threat posed by ISIS will also be on the agenda of the upcoming U.N. General Assembly meeting in New York, Kerry said.
Almost every country in the world can help in the fight against the Sunni extremist group, he said. "The bottom line is that terrorists like ISIL have no place in the modern world but it's up to the world to enforce that truth." The U.S. government refers to ISIS as ISIL, while the group now calls itself Islamic State.

This won't provoke WWIII. ISIS isn't a huge military force and have no country allies as far as I know. I believe the Russia/Ukraine mess could turn into WWIII sooner or later

Do you guys even know the world history to call everything as World War
Tbh American or any big European country can single handedly demolish ISIS but since we are in era where multilateralism is an acceptable way of intervention . this will be over in 10 -12 days tops

There will never be a WWIII. Let go of that fantasy already. You really think any country is going to declare war on that scale with all of the nuclear weapons that will be involved? The world would be over in days.

WWIII cannot happen. Everyone's economy would be destroyed. There is a reason global economics is in place.. if the USA, China, Japan, the EU, or Russia were to collapse, well, that would be felt by every single country in the world in a devastating way. We all borrow from each other. It's just not likely.
Anyways, down with ISIS.

The aftermath of going into war replenishes and increases the economy for the winning side i.e. WWII

I just couldn't imagine WW3. I mean, how do you deal with skyscrapers? Like would they destroy those massive buildings?

My sister and her husband own a farm in the Hunter Valley and have already said that if I or my brother got conscripted, they would let us hide there. My brother would probably fight, but I would be a coward and would be like "yeah, no, not throwing away the only life I have thanks"

There's nothing cowardly about not fighting in a war. Dropping nuclear bombs on other countries because you can't get along is cowardly.
