Lol, this sounds like a quote from someone in 1914 being catastrophicly wrong.

…or from someone describing one of the scores of conflicts since where “regional” has been a fitting description

of course not. the alternative should be a free and open society where Jews are but one of many groups.

Israel is currently sliding away from this - sadly - but it still has the potential

for starters, If you’d like to immerse yourself into the system of Middle Eastern clients and proxies, you will have an especially fun and long day going through the rather noxious minions of Iran.

You want to force Jews into the diaspora again? Brilliant move, that worked so well for them the first time around. /s

YOU GET THE BOMB, YOU GET THE BOMB, YOU GET THE BOMB, EVERYONE GETS THE BOMB!

Them not behaving more recklessly than Israel is unfortunately not a high bar; which given their past actions I’m not sure they’d pass. I’d like to err on the side of caution here.

I dont see the potential for global conflict.

Israel and Iran have been trading blows for decades now. Some direct, many indirect. It’s a regional conflict, and regional it will remain.

Every now and then, Israel acts to prevent Iran from becoming a nuclear power – and honestly, we’re all the better for it, the world does not need another set of religious crazies to have nukes.

(That being said, is Netanyahu a deplorable asshat? Absolutely yes – but for different reasons)

Do I need to remind everyone

Judging by the number of downvotes your getting: yes.

you think WW3 is starting because of Israel? Can I also get under the rock your been living under, must be nice there.

that’s the gist of it.

“Things are not working well, for years I’ve been voting for the guys who claimed they wanted to repair it. Now I’m voting for the people who want to smash everything…”

“… because I’m too dumb to realize that re-creating from scratch is far more difficult and even less likely to succeed”
