    I’m not sure we’re on a path to WWIII if it’s Russia vs everyone else. If China decides to get involved then maybe but I don’t see any evidence they’re willing to throw in with Putin, same with Iran.

              The Israeli government pushed for “judicial reform” last year prior to the war with Palestine. People were saying that they were doing it in order to go into Palestine and then the big attack by Hamas happened and gave them an excuse. Tensions with Iran and Israel have escalated when Israel assassinated a Hamas leader in Iran over the summer and Iran responded with missile attacks on Israel. I believe that after Trump takes office there will be something that happens that will be “the last straw.” Maybe it will be “WMDs”, hiding Hamas leaders, or some big attack by Iran. It’s going to happen.

                I’m still not sure why you’re so certain about this. You’re speculating that something might happen and yet you said that there’s a “100%” chance of US boots on the ground in Iran.

                As awful as Trump is, his first term wasn’t nearly as hawkish at that of other republican presidents.
