My god, we have such threads at least once a week.
There will never be another world war. People forget that over one hundred million people died during WWII. Warfare has changed a lot since then. Instead of huge armies slugging it out across massive countries, now we would just target the top. During WWII the Allies slowly made their way to Berlin, not knowing where Hitler or his staff was. Now... Take a look at what just happened in Iraq - The entire country, it's government, and it's military were over run and overwhelmed in less than two weeks.
So Iran is threatening to shut down the Strait of Hormuz - again. Whatever. That would be a brilliant move on their part - it would turn every country in the Middle East against them. If they can't export their oil through the Strait of Hormuz, they can't make money.
