    Not doubting you, but could you supply the evidence that makes you so confident? Curious to know the full logic too. Globe is kinda big in comparison to 2 or 3 countries no?

      Israel makes no secret that they intend to steal more land from their neighbors. They’re extremely nationalistic so this is popular for their political leaders. They know the USA will protect them. It’s a series of facts with a logical conclusion. If someone else doesn’t start it first, they will eventually.

          if you want an academic discussion about world war accelerating events you will have more luck pestering your local professor rather than demanding evidence from someone who isn’t intending to apply too much rigor on a lemmy post.

          Are any of my statements of fact in dispute? I just checked what I wrote and all three are verifiably true. And the idea that they will continue to agitate as a result makes perfect sense.

            No disputes. I don’t disagree. I was (still am as none has been seen by me) looking for evidence. It was a humble request because I’m overly curious. Sending peace and good vibes to the super-dimension-fortress crew🙂

      Well it’s pretty simple to understand that Israel is supported by many western countries, and there are many others who do not support Israel and/or those western countries. Those western countries will support Israel and push their influence onto them, so anyone who wants to oppose the influence of either Israel or any of those western countries will have an incentive to support Iran in the conflict. What you have there is the same set of conditions that led to the world’s previous global conflicts.

        That sounds like a glorified proxy war than an actual world war. Nobody wants to fight on the behalf of Iran. Most countries are going to distance themselves from the regime, and a few of the more isolated countries will maybe give them weapons… That’s about it.
