Just curious as to what you guys are predicting in the not-so-distant future.
There is much discussion about Israel and Palestine, about VA Tech and 9/11. How do all these seemingly endless events affect the world and how it revolves each and every day?

Terrorism seems to never end, and political debates over whether what's right and what's wrong in Iraq (and other Middle-Eastern countries) will continue for the next hundred years unless something is done now. Honestly, the world is bending at it's knees, and unless something drastic happens, it's all downhill from here on.

Apparently, we are on the edge of the sixth extinction, and only we can prevent it.

Probably the same now. Add 3-4 more terrorist attacks.

Most likely true. I'm sure whatever happens between then and now will be dealt with accordingly and no major differences will exist.

Anyone here listen to Nine Inch Nails? Their most recent album, Year Zero, is a concept album about how the world will end up in 15 years. I'm not sure if I agree with it or not, but it's pretty interesting nonetheless.

If you want to learn more, http://www.ninwiki.com/Main_Page is a good place to start.

Yep, big fan here - flew to the UK to see them in London a month or two ago. Love the concept of the new album.

You know i'm kind of hoping for some sort of war here in the UK. This country has no future with 80% of the population being Chavs. Maybe a war will kill most of them. Survival of the fittest, they're the dumbest (and they smoke and drink alot so they're not fit) and so they'll die first.

Call me a traitor, but i'm hoping for a Civil war in the next 10.

Who knows? Maybe the US terror alert will actually drop down to light red or even orange?

I actually think the Democrats will get in after Bush, they'll swing the US's image back towards being more cuddly and friendly again and things might calm down a little (everything usually goes in cycles). Al Qaeda will continue to act like bunch of gobshites but world conquest will never be a reality for them. The battle for oil will get more intense and prices will continue to go through the roof, Europe will continue to unify and expand and Ireland will become a united nation under the European umbrella. Israel will continue to act like cunts but maybe (just maybe) they'll see the light and attempt peace in a two state solution with Palestine (who would initially have a hard time controlling their grass roots extremists but with a little luck and strong leadership would manage to do so). Globalization will continue with depressing success.

I agree with all of it apart from the bullshit about Israel. Neither side wants peace. Its not gunna happen. EVER. They are both as wrong as each other.
