WW III likely? Yes, if Hezbollah attacks Israel in the North with the near 100,000 rockets stretching the Iron Dome defence system, & Hamas in Gaza (South) continues attacks on Israel & Iran etc.,
then Israel will have no choice but to neutralize Iran who sponsors both Hamas and Hezbollah & Israel will have to then destroy Iran's nuclear program & likely Iran itself; WW III will likely begin
Israel has a right to self defense. I pray for no lives lost that are innocent lives on both sides. Yet lets not fool ourselves, this Hamas-Israel disaster has the ability to take this world to WW III and a nuclear war and fast. This Christmas can look very different than last and the next 2 months can unfold in a most devastating manner.
America will have no choice but to enter once Hezbollah strikes Israel and Iran strikes Israel. Understand then the unholy alliance between China, Russia and Iran…Key nations to me as to posture are Pakistan, Jordan, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia. Understand China will take the opening to move on Taiwan. Then sea lanes and islands such as the Malaccan straights and Spratly islands become game and critical in any battle as to control.
We have never been closer to a World War and this would be WW III.

You say "Israel has a right to self defense." Does it also have a right to completely destroy Gaza and all of the innocent civilians? Bombing hospitals, and every other possible building including homes, churches, etc. Does it have a right to starve the people, and to have initially contained the population in an open air prison, which is no different than a concentration camp for 2 million people, and all the previous events of "mowing the lawn." Please remember, the people living in Gaza were not allowed to leave and others were not allowed enter. Your bias is showing, and so is your sense of justice.
Quit defending Israel - you're destroying all credibility you had over Covid. Israel is the perpetrator and prison keeper and genocidal terrorist - end of story!
