Topic	Remember when we all thought the Ukraine war would turn into WW3?

I think it's unlikely. Israel/Gaza is much smaller in scale than any of its previous full-blown wars, and it's not even fighting more than one country at a time. And unlike previous conflicts, the Arab countries would be fighting for The Palestinians (who they don't care about), as opposed to territory (which they did care about). We've also seen that previous smaller conflicts (e.g., invasion of Lebanon) didn't really interest the surrounding countries enough to get involved (or maybe they were quietly happy to have Israel do the job). <cite>tankboy posted [p:979832891] in Remember w...
