I hardly doubt the Greece has a military force that would require the help of allies, and it is far more likely that economic sanctions from the EU and UN would crush any thoughts of war that Greece may be fantasizing about.

Greece has a military? This is news. /sarcasm

A battalion of Marines would crush their entire military in three days flat. It would be a suicide mission.

In my opinion I don't even know why people are thinking about "World War 3". Just because there was a WW1 and a WW 2, doesn't mean theres going to be a WW3.


"Yeah, there was a Vietnam War. Now I bet theres going to be a Second Vietnam War."

"YEAH, and when World War 3 does come you'll be thinking about World War 4. Genius"

I have a feeling that if that there were a world war 3, it would more likely be started by the arab nations of the middle east than a country that is near broke. Considering that there is now basically a Muslim super-nation forming there from all the uprisings, it wouldn't be a surprise to see a world war start there.

Sorry for the off-topicness, but these revolutions are not necessarily ushering in a large, Muslim dominant governments, but more of the Western democracy we enjoy today.

Regardless of their current status it wouldn't be difficult for conservative Muslims to infiltrate and establish Sharia Law. It is however doubtful when you consider the amount of money OPEC makes through what little of the oil market they control and the lack of other natural resources available in the Middle East, instigating a war against their major trading partners would be illogical and foolish.

Oh and Cambyses, I said UN not US.

Pan-Arabism has been around for years, since the days of Nasser. Such dreams have already been quashed seeing how divided the Arab world is. And we aren't even talking about the Shia-dominated Iranians yet.


And no WWIII? Don't be daft, even if there was a war, which has as much chance to happen as Palin has of suddenly entering the Presidential Race and winning, it would very much be a localized one.


Check your news source.

Greece cannot declare war. The Greek constitution says that Greece can fight only Defensive wars.

Greece has a military? This is news

Actually Greece, for a relatively small country has a pretty "good"army. Greece's military spending is the highest in the European Union (relative to G.D.P).

France and Germany would go to war with italy and greece and it would be world war ll all over again.

Yea, and Pennsylvania and New York would go to war with Rhode Island and Massachusetts.

Greece cannot declare war.


Even if Greece could, it would have absolutely no way of financing for the war, considering their current status.

Yea, and Pennsylvania and New York would go to war with Rhode Island and Massachusetts.


It's only logical?

Rhode Island is to **** small to be a state. Go for it.

Still would be near impossible to win a war with the U.N. and U.S. going after them.

Why is everyone debating about the plausibility of whether Greece will win the war when it is clear to anyone with an ounce of logic that it will never happen? Economic pressures are more than enough to choke the Greeks into austerity cuts.
