According to Pope Francis, we are already in World War III. The war is being conducted by a ‘piecemeal’ approach says BBC. Everyone always assumed World War III would just be a couple of nuclear bombs dropped, wiping out millions of people with a quick ending. Some days, it feels like The Pope is right. Do you agree?

A “piecemeal” World War III may have already begun with the current spate of crimes, massacres and destruction, Pope Francis has warned.
He was speaking during a visit to Italy’s largest military cemetery, where he was commemorating the centenary of World War I.
“War is madness,” the Pope said at a memorial to 100,000 Italian soldiers at Redipuglia cemetery near Slovenia.
The Argentine Pope has often condemned the idea of war in God’s name.
Only last month, Pope Francis said the international community would be justified in using force to stop what he called “unjust aggression” by Islamic State militants, who have killed or displaced thousands of people in Iraq and Syria, including many Christians, the BBC’s David Willey reports.
