Always bet on the middle east. Always.

Like my dad always said, always bet on the crazy guy.

Always bet on the middle east if you're only considering the world post 9/11

Fixed, again.

Iran / Israel

Reason: the absolute stupidest reasons you can imagine, perpetrated by both sides

More fixed.

, it will be Israel that pulls the trigger first.

Wrong
Israel doesn't pull the trigger first.
although USA and Israel are allies, Don,t mistake Israel with the usa. Israel isn't in the business of starting fights/war.

Better go back to 1948 just to be sure.

Because we're supposed to take a guy that rabidly has a dog in the fight seriously. And also makes the highest rate of worst points in the history of the board.

I'm saying that I HIGHLY doubt that Iran will start a full-out assault against Israel. It does not serve in its national interests in any way whatsoever. If there is a war, I predict that it will be the side against Iran that starts a siege; whether this is Israel, the EU, the US is fairly irrelevant.

The Middle East region was the one that people feared the most in terms of escalation? Did you manage to completely forget about the Cold War?

Sorry, I guess I'm operating off of what really happened. The Cold war is called as such for a reason, and the middle east was just one theater where it played out to a degree.

But yeah, Zionism + everything else immediately was a huge problem and continues to raise the stakes for everyone around the world. It's absolute insanity.
