Whilst reading up on the history of France in Algeria, I came across this site (http://www.ahtg.net/TpA/hisalger.html) which read as a fairly reasonable attempt to explain a piece of history.
However, towards the bottom it links on to this page (http://www.ahtg.net/TpA/ww3.html) about the Third World War which, apparently:
was a conflict that was global in its effects despite the brief seven months of warfare. No part of the world was left unscathed, not even neutral countries or continents; the conflict bears the unique distinction of having caused, both directly and indirectly, deaths and injuries in every country in the world, though casualties vary enormously from the 109 dead of Kerguelen to the almost one billion dead in China. A conflict that literally destroyed entire countries, it left its survivors to rebuild the world as best they could.
Apparently it all began in 1982.
Did I miss a meeting or something?
