what are the chances that the Lebanon conflict will start WWIII?

Question

WWII was started with a conflict a 3rd world country had with a 2nd 3rd world country.can the lebanon conflict start WWIII??

Answer 1

WW III is already started.

It is the global war on terror. The current conflict in Lebanon is one of many fronts of the war.

Answer 2

The chances are low, if anything, it might come close to the Yom Kippur War in 1973 when Israel routed an Arab coalition led by Egypt. If Iran tips in with a nuclear device, the stakes may be raised, but they're not due for an operational nuke until 2012.

The only time we can speak of a WWIII is when the strategic super-powers square off, until then, its just a side show among rump states.

Answer 3

Outside of fox news land no. all the principles in this conflict do not have the will or the muscle for a sustained war. all 1st world players are busy else where to get too mixed up in this one over dramatized skirmish. Israel can't stay beyond it's borders too long it learned that the last time it invaded lebanon. SYRIA AND HEZBOLLAH TALK TOUGH BUT DON'T HAVE THE STUFF. They are just annoyance who wants there prisoners back hence current events. So don't get all armagedeonish on everybody.

Answer 4

Yes, I think that this will lead to WW III.
Countries are already taking sides and will continue to.
On or before September 12, 2006 there will be nuclear war starting.
This will lead into WW III. In WWII Japan was starting to loose and then sent out there pilots with the instructions to use themselves as weapons. They were told that when they die they would become anything that they want to be.

Sound familiar? Today there are Martyrs. They are told that they get 70 virgins.

The answer will be the same to day as it was then. Nuclear War.
Hiroshima! then Euphrates now.

Answer 5

the suitable invention related to Iran became a selection of information reported as "1001nights". you look to stay with in that custom of telling fiction. Hezbollah all started this conflict under direct orders from Tehran. Hezbollah chief and command team concealed interior the Iranian embassy in the present day as hostilities began and remains there. Israeli infantrymen choose orange juice, at a similar time as Hezbollah is person-friendly for the fields of cannabis of their outdoor, and is the reason your tendency to work out issues that are no longer there. Israel now holds the bodies of numerous hundred hizbalons, yet Hezbollah reported basically fifty 3 deaths, possibly the rest weren't seen human by utilising Nasrallah. the hizbalonis made very stable use of Lebanese toddlers as protection from Israeli assaults, including loading toddlers on precise of autos donning rockets, and then whilst a number of those toddlers have been killed, the hizbalonis invited the press and ordered them to take pictures of bodies. i could remark on each and every situation you wrote besides the undeniable fact that it sounds like i'm coping with ****.

Answer 6

Our international community and UN prevent worldwide wars, the violation of human rights, genocide, etc. and thus chances are slim to none.

Answer 7

None...All those nations together can't fight Israel, so it will always be a local thing, Iran was at war against Iraq for ten years, so you get the picture
