For the past seven decades, since
the end of World War II, global leaders, defence policymakers and military
experts have speculated about how, when and where World War III will happen.
The when and where is immaterial today; given the hundreds of hot and dangerous
spots across the globe, it can happen anytime, anywhere. The how, though, is
still relevant. During the Cold War, it was felt that the new global war would
be instigated by one of the two superpowers, America or the Soviet Union. The
Cuban missile crisis was a prime example of this mindset.
