Sounds like one of those fake titles trying to get you to look at the diary, eh?
No. I am not kidding.

ABC News Online is reporting:
US President George W Bush has referred to the "war on terror" as "World War III" during a television interview.
Mr Bush told the CNBC television network the revolt of passengers on the hijacked flight 93 on September 11, 2001, was the "first counter-attack to World War III".
He said he agreed with the description by David Beamer, whose son Todd died in the crash, in a Wall Street Journal commentary last month the act was "our first successful counter-attack in our homeland in this new global war - World War III".
Mr Bush said: "I believe that. I believe that it was the first counter-attack to World War III.
"It was unbelievably heroic of those folks on the airplane to recognise the danger and save lives," Mr Bush said.
This is ridiculous. What in God's name is he doing?
UPDATE:
Apparently Bush isn't the only one floating the WWIII balloon:

UNITED NATIONS - Israel said Monday that a new “axis of terror” — Iran, Syria and the Hamas-run Palestinian government — is sowing the seeds of the first world war of the 21st century. The Palestinians accused Israel of an escalating and indiscriminate military campaign that targets civilians and entrenches its occupation.
