    Why not

    It's easier to say Israelis, Yids or Kikes won't fly here. It's kind of like calling an Irish person a mick or an Italian a greaser, the powers that be don't like it, I know we're jesting but we have to be respectful, always refer to your opponent in a formal manner.

    "Hey brah..." asks the US.

    "Yeah man. Wassup?," says China.

    "Can I borrow a trillion?", we ask.

    China, "Uhm... I guess, but why?".

    "We're going to war. With you," we says.

    "Hell naw, dude!" China yells.

    Relax. There would never be a war between the US and China. We would have to borrow the money from China in order to pay for it.

    Well if they like the Yid moniker they can have it. I've heard some very funny sayings over the years, I can't repeat them though because I'd be perma banned out of here. Very ugly phrases but humorous none the less.

    To be fair, yids is easier to spell.

    A lot of spurs fans use it about themselves. Depends on the context.

    Some Spurs and Ajax fans call themselves Yids. Because of their Jewish heritage.

    China and Russia are more likely to go to war against each other rather than with each other.

    On my side I'd like the Saint, Winker Watson, Pig from Pipkins, Captain Britain, Ryan Tubridy and three Daleks.

    All Daleks would be rendered useless as soon as steps or a kerb were introduced :p. Ryan Tubridy would be first to be shot/blown up/stabbed/stabbed repeatedly/decapitated/hanged/bazooka'd/snapped. He would also turn the opposition into such a blinding rage that nobody else would stand a chance for the first hour..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,967 ✭✭✭Hande hoche!


    Whichever side the Vietnamese are on. Also having Eritrea as allies would be a plus.

    The Russians and the Chinese won't team up. They'd both want to be powerhouses in their own right.

    Add to that, that the Russians aren't the power they were when it was the USSR. A few rusty MiGs and some creaky Soviet nuclear subs is about the top and bottom of it.

    But the Chinese... yeah... they'd be a bit more scary alright.

    Proper "Wait until you see the whites of their eyes, lads!" stuff that.
    Are you joking? The Russians have the most nuclear weapons and the most powerful non nuclear bomb not to mention the obvious size of their manpower.

    True and the seem to be getting serious about military reform and modernization.

    I heard about that I think. Something about a lot of the important Russian commanders not being happy with the current military and wanting to reform it for the better?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,398 ✭✭✭StinkyMunkey


    I'd go with my backside, I'd kiss it goodbye, WW3 and its game over - the side that thinks its gonna lose would launch the first nuke.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 889 ✭✭✭Bajingo


    People have gone too off topic with this thread. I'd be with the Marvel side no doubt. The Hulk, although hard to control would be pretty unstoppable (Thor too) and when in Bruce Banner form would be a great help with weapons development working with Iron-man and Spider-man. Wolverine, near impossible to kill and Professor X can make opposing troops shoot themselves (too much of a pacifist to actually do this though).

    The best DC have is superman, whip up some kyrptonite armour and bullets, be grand. What side will the villains be on though...?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,891 ✭✭✭iamanengine


    I want Venezuela on my team.

    I wouldnt be so sure on that.Their new super sub.Which carries,amoungst other things, nuclear depth charges for fcuking other peoples shiit up.

    Once it was in the water, the SSBN Yury Dolgoruky easily passed its sea trials. It entered active duty last July, at 557 feet long, with a 44 foot beam and 32-foot draught. Submerged, it displaces 24,000 tons and keep its 130-member crew underwater for up to 100 days. A single ОК-650В nuclear reactor powers a pump-jet propulsion system—another first for Russian subs. This allows the sub a top speed of 29 knots while operating more quietly than conventional screw propultion.
    The SSBN Yury Dolgoruky also carries enough armarment to start World War III and IV. It's outfitted with 16, 45-ton Bulava submarine-launched ballistic missiles (SLBM)—a derivation of the Topol-M ICBM developed at the Moscow Institute of Thermal Technology. Each SLBM employs multiple warheads, and each of those can carry a 100-150kt nuclear payload. According to an RIA Novosti report, it could add up to a total payload of 600 nuclear warheads per sub

    uh oh spaghetti O's

    Russia's population is much less than that of the USA or EU. And a lot of them at Muslims, many of whom may not be quite loyal

    In a third world war? Id pick the Germans French the US and the U.K. or just about any European nation. Two world wars later Europeans would be quick to mobilise and quick to get boots on the ground in whatever part the of the world a conflict fairs up, especially with US help.

    I sincerely doubt that there will be a third world war It would have to start in Europe into it and we are too deeply integrated (like it did the first two times) ..what is more likely is a regional conflict pulling in a large power ... like the Israel situation at the moment. It is likely that thy have nukes but are probably the only ones in the region that do ...that is both good and bad ..it means that they can act as a stabilizing influence through fear ..But it is bad as all the arab nations will seek out nukes to even they playing field.
