Anti-bellum 
While the US-NATO-allied bloc seeks to intensify the ‘war by other means’ concept (in an effort to avoid a direct kinetic stage of conflict against Russia), their objectives are nonetheless leading to situations of war against the Russian Federation.
Georgian officials have stated an intention to eventually forcefully integrate S Ossetia and Abkhazia. Similarly, a US-NATO regime changed (and subsequently NATO standards integrated) Ukraine is preparing to further escalate offensive operations against the LPR and DPR with openly stated intentions to forcefully integrate Crimea, the potential for a broader conflagration developing being self-evident.
The NATO expansion project is indeed progressing towards another world war scenario. Russian warnings relating to the build-up of US-NATO military/missile architecture are being ignored as are key Russian proposals/initiatives to establish war-prevention mechanisms (the US withdrawal from successive treaties relating to the pre-planned deployment of offensive systems that were prohibited by these treaties).
As the US-NATO-allied bloc is uncompromising in pursuing the European Union-NATO bloc expansion project (based on the former Soviet Union economic-military bloc but in opposition to Russia) involving efforts to expand/build-up military architecture on the border of Russia with corresponding economic strangulation efforts, wars in this region are likely not a matter of if but when. The globally expanding militarism of the US-NATO-allied bloc is unlikely to cease until the logical outcome occurs (a world war). The greatest threat to many are the consequences of their own actions. It is likely this concept will in time be made evident to the US-NATO-allied bloc.
In this context it is worth monitoring key developments. If the Axis-of-Resistance responds collectively to ongoing Israeli aggressions (particularly violations concerning the Al-Aqsa Mosque), if Turkey expands its wars to include the political map of Cyprus (and associated regional resources), if the financial markets experience a crisis that various economists warn is approaching and will eclipse all such previous events, if a US-led coalition intervenes in the reunification of Taiwan, if war develops on the Korean peninsula (the positions of the US and the DPRK being incompatible), etc., it will then be evident the many concurrent wars have become one.
It would be prudent to quietly but adequately prepare for all potential scenarios as the foundations of another world war are in place. (Note: A possible worst-case scenario of a nuclear warfare event, that may or may not occur, does not translate to human extinction. It would however eclipse previous wars. After several months, conditions would be largely normalised. If the above mentioned situations develop, I would respectfully advise it would be prudent to make decisions relating to adequate preparations accordingly.) I hope I am wrong regarding what is unfolding but I am confident I am not.

p2. – Speaking to a group of college students on 2 April, 2003, former CIA Director Woolsey revealed, “…the United States is engaged in World War IV, and that it could continue for years.” Woolsey described the Cold War as the third world war. He then said “This fourth world war, I think, will last considerably longer than either World Wars I or II did for us. Hopefully not the full four-plus decades of the Cold War.” (Wikipedia: R. James Woolsey, Jr., Director of Central Intelligence);
Unfortunately, the globally expanding militarism of the US-NATO-allied bloc is unlikely to cease. Their pursuit of power and profit is insatiable. But it is likely soon they shall have neither.

Certain Western bloc nations have become addicted to war (war terminology often applied to broader issues). Even the GWOT is being misused to pursue broader objectives:
– “If the war does not significantly change the world’s political map, the U.S. will not achieve its aim” [Donald Rumsfeld on the GWOT]
Indeed, the actual reasons the war against Afghanistan occurred relate to events that precede (and motivated) the events on September 11, 2001 (the basis being indentified by analysts at the time with various reports relating to these events since). Various reports confirm the events on September 11, 2001 followed threats by US officials of ‘regime change’ against the Taliban after the latter rejected a US bid in preference to the Argentinian Bridas Corporation bid for the strategic TAPI pipeline:
– “[In June 2001 the US offered to] give the Taliban government of Afghanistan a gift of $43 million, “which made the United States the main sponsor of the Taliban.” In 1997, Halliburton, with Dick Cheney as its CEO, secured a contract in Turkmenistan for exploration and drilling in the Caspian Sea basin…. In the summer of 2001 [immediately following the Taliban accepting the Bridas Corporation TAPI pipeline bid], the Taliban were leaked information from top secret meetings that the Bush regime was planning to launch a military operation against the Taliban in July to replace the government…… A former Pakistani diplomat told the BBC that the US was planning [military action] before the 9/11 attacks. Niaz Naik, former Pakistani Foreign Secretary, “was told by senior American officials in mid-July that military action against Afghanistan would go ahead by the middle of October.” [Following these threats, the events of September 11, 2001 occurred]…… The result of this war on Afghanistan is that Afghanistan’s new President is Hamid Karzai, a former Unocal adviser [US Ambassador to Afghanistan Zalmay Khalilzad was a consultant for Cambridge Energy Research Associates, which conducting risk analysis for Unocal for the TAPI pipeline project]……… as of April 2008, a US-sponsored pipeline agreement was signed with Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan and India….. Mission Accomplished. (Origins of Afghan War, Geopoliticalmonitor, September 14, 2008)
– “It was at the July meeting…. [Ambassador] Tom Simons suggested that Afghanistan could face an open-ended military operation….. if it didn’t accede to U.S. demands. “Ambassador Simons stated that if the Taliban wouldn’t agree with the plan [relating to the proposed strategic Trans-Afghanistan pipeline], and if Pakistan was unable to persuade them, the United States might use an overt action against Afghanistan….. The words used by Simons were “a military operation”…. Another participant reportedly said the Taliban’s choice was clear: either accept a “carpet of gold” riches from the pipeline or “a carpet of bombs,” meaning a military strike…. [Ambassador Tom Simons] confirms that only a few weeks before Sept. 11, American diplomats warned of military action against Afghanistan if its leaders did not meet U.S. economic and political demands.” (Al-Qaida monitored U.S. negotiations with Taliban over oil pipeline, A memo by military chief Mohammed Atef raises new questions about whether failed U.S. efforts to reform Afghanistan’s radical regime — and build the pipeline — set the stage for Sept. 11., 05/06/2002)
– “the decision to invade Afghanistan was made in mid 2001, long before the alleged excuse of the events of 11 September 2001 (“9/11”). A major factor influencing the American decision to invade Afghanistan was the decision by the then Taleban government to award the contract for the transport of oil and gas from the Caspian Basin nations via Afghanistan to the Argentinian company, Bridas Corporation. One of the first acts of the US after the Afghanistan invasion was to cancel the Bridas contract. That company later successfully sued the United States government for the breach of its contract, a fact that for obvious reasons went almost completely unreported in the western mainstream media….. ” (Washington Post Revelations Only Part of the Story, James ONeill (Barrister-at-Law), New Eastern Outlook, 15/12/2019), etc……
The criminality of the US (and involved allies) is globally expanding (and has progressed to forms of warfare against the Russian Federation, China, the DPRK, Iran, etc.). When limits of restraint are exceeded, logically the US and its involved allies will experience the consequences of their actions.

Thanks again. The four nations you mention – (in ranking order) Russia, China, Iran and North Korea – are exactly the four identified by commanders of all U.S. military commands in their testimony before both houses of Congress. 100%.
