* General Sir Nick Carter made comments on Sky News's Sophy Ridge on Sunday
* UK economy projected to shrink by 2 per cent between October and December
* Sir Nick is worried regional global conflicts could ramp up into a 'full blown war'
The economic fallout during the coronavirus pandemic has made the prospect of World War Three 'a risk', the UK's most senior military commander has said.
General Sir Nick Carter, the Chief of the Defence Staff, said Britain and the rest of the world would need to 'learn' from history and the international missteps that led to the previous world wars in the last century given the uncertainties caused by Covid-19.
Sir Nick made the comments when asked by Sky News in the run up to Remembrance Sunday whether he feared the global economic crisis brought on by coronavirus could lead to war.

CORONA DID NOT CAUSE THE DAMAGE. LIBERAL SHIT POLITICIANS DID.
My metro area will summarize corona deaths by race and by sex, but not by age.
That is not hard to do with software that is out there for a generation now.
If you make an a relief surface graph show corona deaths by age and co-morbid conditions, most people would not be in favor of mass suicide (i.e. lockdowns).
We will get a war and Hunter will get hundreds of millions, while eating popcorn.
Yes, we will have war.
We will have to helpless incompetents in office due to theft.
"Yes, those 'glitches' are from the same software that made Venezuela's elections so free and fair"

"Penn, Schoen & Berland, taking exit polls at the same referendum found that 60% were in favor of throwing Chavez out, and 40% favored keeping him. Much to his surprise, the scorecard came out in almost the exact reverse, 58-42. Flipped."
"think it’s unlikely to be hidden in a human-readable language like Java, C, Perl, C++, etc. almost anybody could read that and point it out. I think it’s much more likely that any incipiencies would be hidden in a compiler (perhaps to reassign addition operations to adjust by some fraction), assembly/machine code, or the chip itself. Very few people in industry would want to open Pandora’s box to inspect those elements, even fewer would be qualified/able to inspect."
Even parrot could read code, if he tried.
Key phrase being "If he tried"
So yeah, they probably didn't hide in the language/code there.
Actually, I think Parrot would have a good time with COBOL. It looks a lot like sentence diagramming. So it would seem very familiar.
Scariest think in the linked article is, if they put the cheat in the chip. Keep putting crap like that in chips and planes will fallout of the sky, ship run aground, cars veer into incoming traffic and economies fail.
Put crap in chip[s and we will need to break out slide rulers.
WWIII? I don't think so. Short of a large Chinese invasion of Taiwan - and now it's a good question as to whether the West would respond to that at all - there just isn't the fuel for that fire.
There more likely scenario will be balkanizations throughout several large countries - al la Yugoslavia. For the US in particular, old fashioned civil war with clear delineations, enemy lines and contested territory just isn't in the cards. The closest thing to that would be large urban centers and to some degree the suburbs vs the rural districts. Or the interior versus the coasts. But even then the belligerents would be tightly intermingled. So the result would be something on the order of roving Contra-like death squads, killing off enemy nests. /Wacky fun.
BRUSH,
FIRES,
R,
I like your thinking Russ. The fuel for the fire not being there comment makes sense.
However, the problem I have is that nature abhors a vacuum. I think Democrats are more interested in grinding Republicans in the dirt, hobnobbing with Euro-socialists in a love fest over COVID, Kyoto and other policies, getting filthy rich and ensuring power forever than looking a the balance of power. DoD would have a hard time getting their attention.
Plus in the DoD, we are going to get more suck ups like in the Obama era, who will be to busy downsizing P2P force and staving off attrition of contingency forces in Afghanistan and Syria.
