I mean really, Atlass, why can't you just abandon your violent religion? Can't you see it's doing you more harm than good? If you all abandoned it then you wouldn't see differences between each-other.
By now, I think every single human -even the dead- know that it's the fault of Trump along with a shadowy wing of greedy Oligarchs and businessmen leading the world through a serious of disastrous decisions that lack any empathy or consideration for the life of innocent people.
When the nukes start falling, you'll wake up to the truth you lied to yourself about.

Can you offer an explanation as to why none of the other Middle Eastern wars became a world war (other than your paranoid ethnocentricity, I mean)?

Because this one is mainly between Iran and Saudi Arabia. The world will get hammered very badly if it lost the oil exported from these two countries even if for a single week; that without counting the allies who will enter this war like the U.S. Counting the oil wells which are going to burn gives me a headache alone.
It will escalate to a global war for energy if nobody intervened and stopped the mad psychopaths ruling.

I trust that Europe's left is wiser than following the bullshit of rightist pricks like the kind of Trump.
But Western Europe will enter the war for oil.
The Chinese will enter the war for oil also

The Iraq war was deeply unpopular last time round and it basically destroyed Blair's career. Trump is far more unpopular than Bush in the UK and the population are far more politically engaged this time round. And more sceptical too. The UK government is also far weaker now than last time. I don't see the UK joining in with this war, no matter how desperate the Tories are for a trade deal with the US. The Brits are by and large cynical bastards so there won't be any fooling them a second time. Although I fully expect the Westminster government to try and join in. Although saynig that, the UK doesn't always help fight America's wars. We stayed out of Vietnam for example.
The problem is that energy is very precious. British people might not care about the U.S anymore, but they care for their bread, all humans do. A shortage of oil means the end of the modern luxury we lived in after WW2.
