Greatest Short-Term Threat to Westeros?
Who represents the greatest short-term threat to Westeros? Not just in terms of conquest, but rather in general instability and grief for the common man.
The Others
House Lannister
The Wildings
Dany & Her Dragons
House Martel

re:
The Others are the biggest threat, but in the long term.

Dany is the great short term threat, because she comes with a big army foreigners and dragons..

As if things aren't bad enough around Westeros, without Dany fucking with things more.

House Martell. They will attack before Dany gets close, so they are more of a short-term threat. And they will fight the Lannisters, I am sure of it.

re:
But they are a part of Westeros, how can they be a threat? They are not more of a threat than the Lannisters.

Dany/Others/Wildins, on the other hand, will be a surprise..

Re: re:
Perhaps I should rephrase the question in terms of the Greatest Short-Term Threat to the Stability of Westeros.

Re: re:
The Martells are the biggest short-term threat to peace in Westeros. They can bring a whole new war if they wanted.

re:
But they are insiders, they are expected to cause troubles. Dany, on the other hand, can really win the war and burn everyone who denies her queenship.

Re: re:
I voted for the Lannisters, for the same reasons are you guys voted for the Martels. The Martels have the potential to bring war to the seven kingdoms once again, but the Lannisters have the potential to avert that war, provided that Cersei doens't screw things up again.

But, since Cersei still seems to be at the helm of the monarchy, I vote for the Lannisters.

Cersei screws everything and everyone, so don't really count on her not "screwing things up". But, hey, i would gladly screw Cersei and way she wishes! :hat

Re: re:
I, too, voted for the Lannisters, because were it not for them, there wouldn't BE any stability in the realm. Cersei doesn't fuck her brother, doesn't have three bastard children with them, and there is stability in the realm. Cersei will fuck up the realm even further, mark my words.

St Pelagius, love the title. I was thinking of changing my own to that, but you beat me. You have to love it, "Trogdor the Burninator." Priceless.

I voted for the Lannisters, because of Cersei. I trust her to screw up. Either she'll manage to break the alliance with the Tyrells or the alliance with the Martells.
I don't think that, unless seriously provoked, House Martell is a threat. Doran strikes me as a cautious, patient man. Unlike the Red Viper. He has an army and can cause trouble to the Lannisters, but I can't see Dorne taking down a Lannister-Martell army.
