There have been tensions recently, extreme tensions between Syria/Russia and Turkey for the
demolition
of an turkish aircraft simply because they did not follow the rules of not flying in Syrian areas.

Honestly, World War 3 isn't going to be like the other World Wars; it's just going to be countries nuking the crap out of each other this time around, destroying everything, which is why no country will intentionally start it up.

So much this.
WW3 will start with a single nuke. The defense of any nuclear power against a nuclear strike? Launch another nuke back.
And then everyone just starts shooting nukes.
And at that point, survival of humans at all is the best we can hope for. At the absolute worst, we might just manage to permenately kill the planet itself...

No, countries who are planning on going on a war, can use even the slightest maybe the most minor excuse to justify the war. Here is their chance.
And get nuked back into the Stone Age? Don't think so.

They will use nukes only when they will see they are losing the war. It's like an "I.W.I.N Button".
No, it's more like an "E.V.E.R.Y.O.N.E.L.O.S.E.S Button"

^ This.
A large majority of countries won't be stupid enough to use a nuke, so they are still the ultimate deterrent to keep a world war from bring out.

Which is exactly why I believe that if there is a WW3, I highly doubt any nuclear weapons will be used unless they fall into the hands of terrorists.
If they do get used however, on a large scale, it is highly unlikely that any humans would survive.

I think it depends on where they get used.
I actually predict that a nuclear device will be used within the next 5 to 10 years. My guess is either Iran, or another rogue Islamic state will attack, or attempt to attack Israel. Either Israel will respond with their own nuke, or they may possibly even fire the first one in response to a credible enough threat, that cannot be dealt with quickly or effectively enough through conventional methods.
As long as the major superpowers (US, China, and to some extent, Russia) do not get overly involved, the war could be contained to the middle east. But as soon as any of the above 3 make the mistake to target, or launch on each other, its MAD (Mutual Assured Destruction) all over again.

Not sure why Russia, China or the US would decide to fire upon each other anyway, let alone declare war on each other.
I highly doubt WW3 will involve either of the three declaring war on each other, especially China and the US.
