Will there ever be an actual War again?
By War I mean conventional warfare between two nation-states (And not non-state actors such as terrorist groups, rebellion groups, etc.)
Maybe.
Entirely possible, but not preferable.
Don't think so anon. Think of everything nations like China and Russia and the USA have to loose by going into a full scale war. I do think that insurgencies and small conflicts like the war on terror will be the norm for quite a while. I don't mind though. I did my 4 active and am now I'm in the reserves hoping for sumn to kick off. I'd rather go fight terror than wage full scale war with Russia were I have a 2/10 chance of survival.

Of course there will be. It will be between shitty 2nd or 3rd world countries though, not huge military powers like China, the US, or Russia.
>>32537854
Happens in Africa all the time.
Not anytime soon, we're still kinda fucked from WWII and the Cold War is kinda scary, it's all about airstrikes on brown people in shithole nations and using said brown people shithole nations to fight proxy wars with other world powers' proxy brown people.

Not since the 80's, no. Now it's all rebel groups.
>>32537854
Yes. It will likely be a scenario like Korea where it's two major powers refusing to back down and fight over some 3rd world shithole buffer. I'm surprised it hasn't happened since desu.

Never
The South will never attack because America will never let them because "MUH LIBERALS"
The North will never attack because they KNOW they can't win and that Kim only stays in power because of the bluff of war, which goes away if you actually declare war.
The Korean peninsula, despite all the saber rattling, is probably one of the most peace-ensured places in the world.

Hardly. The South will never attack because their economy cant afford the sudden burden of a gorillion starving war refugees with no meaningful skills, piecemeal education and possible communist indoctrination.

What? Border wars and skirmishes happen all the god damn time. Sudan/South Sudan, Djibouti/Eritrea, Ethiopia/Eritrea, Western Sahara War went up into the 90s, not to mention all these insurgencies are nearly always backed by another local country.

is Ukraine not a nation-state?
>>32537854
Not for the US, that is why the invented terrorism and declared a war on an idea. You can't kill an idea.
>>32538366
It's a low intensity conflict.

Like getting a limb blown off is a "traumatic amputation"?
>>32537854
even if there were a conventinal war what is the likely hood gurellia warfare and ied's would be used?
>>32538094
what about the instability that's going on in South Korea?
>>32538471
We didn't invent the term, its been around for quite some time. We simply gave it a new face.
>>32538053
This is some fucking autism right here.
>>32537854
Until there exists a full-prove missile-shield that can defeat ICBM, no, there will never be, as you put it, an actual war.

Leadership will be shaken up, but no Sork is crazy enough to think war is a good thing
