The western judeo-globalist elite is mentally ill and profoundly evil. I don't think they would think twice about starting WW3 if they could. They have some problems though, the relative power of the Russia/China/Iran axis, not just military power but now economic power, and their own demoralisation of western men backfiring and making a military draft difficult. They didn't have these problems in WW2 with America being the strongest superpower and having almost infinite economic resources and a motivated ideologically homogeneous population. I genuinely don't believe America can win a conventional war against any major power anymore, despite their military spending. Their tactic of aerial bombardment "shock and awe" does not work against the major powers, and they rely on this tactic to clear the way for their ground forces for which their population cannot tolerate losses they suffer against 3rd worlders.
