When WW III starts the entire world is going to participate. All the current wars and skirmishes are just a precursor to what's coming. I believe it will begin when a couple of ME countries nuke Israel and in turn Israel demolishes Damascus,Syria with nukes. After that, it's on.
If you want me to pick which countries are on which side ... I cannot do that at the moment. I'm not even sure WWIII has started, but I believe it has. Being a world war, I'd guess most countries would pick sides ... even if they do not take part.
I believe it is best stated "West vs East", yet it's more difficult than that. Plus the fact that some in the West are going to defect, (Philippines?). It might be better stated "West vs The Rest". Seems everyone is gunning for the US, including half of it's own citizens. Europe is being overran and they have no resolve to stop it.
We gave up the Philippines once. It's ok.
Is the Vatican calling the shots in DC? No? Ok, I guess the spread of religion is fine too.
Is the KKK outgunned on all fronts? Yeah, and good riddance.
The entrance of nukes and worldwide economic development makes conventional war too expensive to wage. Our tanks will someday seem like plate armor in medieval times. Expensive and amazingly crafted, but utterly useless against a guy with a gun. There's a few areas in the world that are still nasty, but the armor wars are done. Drones, intelligence, infrastructure and propaganda are the weapons of today.
The war is economic. Access to capital. Access to markets. America was a master in this realm. They were so good that it would take decades of defeats before anyone started thinking they might lose the war. China's been racing ahead with its trade surplus for decades to fanfare. Germany has been doing the same to much less fanfare. Germany doesn't control Europe of course, but certainly the EU doesn't control Germany. Both have a few objectives yet in order to be realistic in trying to start bullying the US around, but if China can figure out how to work internationally or if Germany can Federalize Europe a bit more and get them pulled a bit further in we face two larger markets than our own.
Meanwhile, we sit divided, arguing over which Kardashian/News event side we're on and getting high, importing goods at a record rate.

Ron. Right now Syria has anti-aircraft batteries from Russia that can take out
Israel nukes. Russia also has anti-ICBM, as does Israel, but one advantage
Russia has is they can shut down guided missiles, ships, planes, from all
electronic and radar-based communications. There are weapons in existence
which have not been used in the field, although Russia did use its jamming tech
to create a 600km dome over Syria last year. Russia has "dome of protection"
electronic defense. It's all rather complicated.
Lazy talk of nukes is passe' in 2016. If WW3 actually starts, we do not know
which missiles will hit and which will be neutered. Many new weapons will
be employed that the public and politicians are unaware of.

The players are west vs east, christian vs muslim, gays vs both, north vs south hemispheres, black and mexican vs white, patriotic conservative heros vs commie leftist democrats, the police vs the people, corporations vs workers, rich vs poor, Trump supporters vs the poor misguided ignorant Hillaryrats, cats vs dogs.
It is just a matter of time and how violent it becomes. Tolerance is dying.
And its getting WORSE everyday!!
