"Do you really think the same dangers exist today for two world wars in Europe that happened in the last century?" Much bigger; the bomb wasn't used until the last week of the war. Next time, about 10,000 bombs could be used in the first and only week. It won't be a war with many blitzkriegs and tank battles. Turkey is also part European. It's not impossible that Russia and Turkey will bump heads in Syria. We could spark something by going after Iran. Russia could keep pushing into Ukraine. Putin could provoke something by cutting off energy exports to Europe.
