Just as both end times Bible prophecy and Nostradamus prophecies warn, economic collapse and WWIII are very real dangers in the near future. Now China warns us:
China warns US that trade war could escalate into ‘Great Depression & World War’
From Russia Today: “An escalation of the Sino-American trade conflict could lead to a repeat of the great catastrophes of the 20th century, a Chinese envoy has warned, just as Donald Trump once again threatened to slap China with additional tariffs.
Just days before Chinese and American leaders are set to meet on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Argentina, the Chinese envoy to the US issued an ominous warning against further escalation of the trade conflict that could potentially break the symbiosis of the two largest world economies, and entirely cripple global trade.
“I don’t know if people really realize the possible consequences – the impact, the negative impact – if there is such a decoupling,” Ambassador Cui Tiankai told Reuters in an interview, stressing that further escalation could recreate the dire economic conditions that once lead to World War II.”
END TIMES PROPHECY 
WW1 & WW2 set the precedents, but for WW3 to be believable, it has to have a credible preamble/precursor.
Meanwhile, the cognoscenti know that WW3 is but a staged armageddon, a mask of chaos that will distract from, and disguise, the real world wide trauma.
Ragnarok.
Gotterdammerung.

Posted by David Montaigne | December 3, 2018, 2:07 amAs WW1 and WW2 were instigated (for purposes other than conquest), WW3 can be similarly instigated. It will appear to happen as folk expect. The military will use their weapons. And eventually, Russian subs that can generate tsunami* will be used (or will have appeared to have been used – to anyone still believing in WW3).
