Not even close.
A world war involves the major planetary powers.
Think:
USA
RUSSIA
CHINA
UK
FRANCE
If these guys start fighting openly among themselves THEN you have something to worry about.
Regional conflicts will always happen. But even in the worst case scenario, say if Israel nukes Tehran, the conflict will still be confined to that region. No one important is going to fight Israel or stick their necks out for the Ayatollahs of Iran.
Iran will not get nukes because even the Russians and Chinese won't let it happen, much less the West.
The last thing a third world country will ever do is give the USA a decent reason to open up with an all out attack.
If the USA wants to destroy a country and is not otherwise interested in sending in troops to occupy it, then that country is boned beyon recognition. Bank on it.
probably no world wars in our lifetime or at least 40 more years

The only thing that will cause WW3 is if a totalitarian state uses a nuke. There wouldn't be a war because they would be destroyed before a war could be started. The existence of the Soviet Union was a greater threat to start WW3.

No, when Europe breaks out into war, then it's a World War.
