Instead of decreasing, armed-conflicts have been increasing around the world. From a global standpoint, the world seems to be in a perpetual state of war. Maybe this is what World War III looks like.
IPS Inter Press Service – Guns and Roses: IPS’s Reporting On Global Armed Conflicts and Resolution Efforts Feed Summary:
The Human Security Report of 2005 identified a fall in the number of armed conflicts since the end of the Cold War. But the evidence examined in the 2008 edition of the Peace and Conflict report shows that the decline has stopped. Armed conflicts — wars, civil wars, revolts, coups, genocides, ethnic and political violence, and terrorism worldwide — are flaring up across the world. Iraq, Israel and Palestine, Afghanistan, Sri Lanka, Darfur, South Ossetia, Colombia…the list of conflict-zones is long. And the poor, women, and children, are the hardest hit. With focus on human rights and development, IPS examines armed conflicts around the world and the efforts to stop them.

ModernFolktales.com is Jesse's ongoing attempt to make sense out of the nonsensical—admittedly an absurd but fun task.
