World War Three Matchups

How about a special 8 man tag match?

China, Russia, Pakistan, Iran

vs

United States, Britain, India, Israel.

I guess most of Europe would automatically side with Britain and US. I think this is a disaster for the Chinese and friends. We'll assume Iran has a nuke or two for this fight but still.

am I being subjected to a blood and urine test? This is just a hypothetical matchup of some world powers and potential combatants. Who do you think survives this bloodbath?

No one survives. That conflict would end life as we know it. Thats why there has not been a world war since the advent of nukes.

Not at all. I was just curious as to the genesis of this seemingly out-of-leftfield proposal.

If you would like an answer, given a millitary conflict of:

[QUOTE]China, Russia, Pakistan, Iran

vs

United States, Britain, India, Israel.[/QUOTE]

Even if such a conflict started as strictly conventional, it would quickly escalate into a nuclear conflict. At that tipping point, the Law of Mutually Assured Destruction kicks in, and should the first nuke fly, thats that for that.

Everyone loses. The survivors get to play "Fallout: The Home Version".

And I will meet you in New Vegas, my friend.

I look forward to donning some post-apocalyptic gear and souping up an old Pontiac.

Maybe a Trans Am.

Possibly.
