[quote:sanspeur33:MV80MDQyNDAzXzczMjI2Mzk4X0JCOUY5MjY=] If you study those wars, the media/mental control was complete. The controllers were able to garner masses under the spell of national threat, and literally get millions ready to go and KILL other humans. With the internet, people cannot be fooled into thinking that killing other humans will solve anything. Yes there are a few that are still fooled, but not nations. NOW, if the power goes down, and control of information is then limited to a few, in a generation, the controllers could muster an army and a population to go off and kill. World wars cannot happen as they did in 1914 and 1930s. But very possible if the net goes down, and time passes. You need total control of the news to get it to happen again. WW2 was the zenith of empire's control on the masses. [/quote]

If you were a common man/woman living in late 1913, you would have had little clue as to the devastating events about to break out just months later.
Similarly, if you were around in late 1938, a second devastating war would not have been predicted by the vast majority of the living population.
In both cases though, the build up was clear. If we had had the internet back then, GLP would have been awash with countless threads warning of the signs to future conflict.
Today is another 1913 or 1938. There are so many 'hot-spots' around the world at the moment - any one of which could be the spark to ignite us into another devastating World War.
