I am more prepare then ever, and your answer is not reflecting your knowledge  at all. There is so many smart general out there but no war won by just strategy and tactic alone. 

You asked me if I am prepared for war. I told you that I am in fact educating the next generation of army officers, strategists and IR theoreticians. I do not claim to be smart nor to be well-versed in war tactics. Tactics imply a war has actually started. I do understand strategy however, which is not limited to war itself. From a strategic point of view, no country right now has any interest in a 'world war', let alone a 'nuclear war'.

Cold wars are far easier in terms of toll, and can also prove to be far more profitable. 2018 is far removed from the context of early to mid 20th century. Cyberwarfare is far more likely, and it is already happening. The good news is that you won't have to actually fight anywhere as a soldier. Land-based war will soon be obsolete, anyway, aside from intrastate conflict and interventions. Worry more about the spread of private security firms bringing us into new forms of war

If no country interested in war,  why china build a large naval fleet and US are increasing  it's Military budget , while Japan re arming them self?

Cold war are far easier agree , but did the cold war ended a long time ago, isn't  the reason why we have proxy war because cold war has ended. 

Yup agree on security firms and cyber warfare.
