The United States is destroying itself -- Rebecca Solnit

[Aussie105]

72. I'd like to pre-emptively declare the following countries as being neutral in the upcoming global conflict:

UK, Ireland.
Europe, most of.
Australia.
Canada.
Greenland.
Asia, except China.
New Zealand.
Japan.
South America.
Africa.

The roles of the following countries beyond the obvious participants, Iran and the US/Israel, is as yet uncertain:
Russia.
China.
Other ME countries.

Rules:
No nukes, but everything else is game.

Advice:
Stock up on toilet paper (!), canned food, and if you are a hard core Armageddon survivalist, guns and ammo.

Time will tell if I'm joking or serious.
