Has Nostradamus' prediction on World War 3 failed? Who was he and what did he say?

Did any of the prophecies of 16th-century French astronomer Nostradamus prove to be wrong? This question looms large after his prophecy about the World War 3 has not come true so far. According to the 'Wion', Nostradamus predicted something which may be interpreted as the beginning of World War 3. He expected a “combat and naval battle” between China and the US, though he did not take their names. The 16th-century philosopher and physicist predicted that the “Red adversary will become pale with fear. Putting the great Ocean in dread”. These lines are interpreted as the blockade of China by the US Navy and a confrontation between the two rival forces.

This prediction is especially significant because Beijing and Washington have indulged in blaming each other for rising tension on the issue of Taiwan. Some of the US lawmakers have openly threatened China with attacks and war if Beijing threatens Taipei.
