Not will be. Is. The blowback from last time was, among other things, Hezbollah.

There are countless fake Lebanese who claim that this invasion is justified and it is 100% hezbollah fault (yeah right) while not realizing that this shit could lead to something far worse.

WW3 is the something worse. I don't see how this goes any other way. China and Russia will back Arab nations to stick it to the US if our troops get involved. (we just sent 10k troops to the region as "peace keepers and advisors" totally won't backfire like very other time) We are moving away from the proxy War phases and straight into full on global war.

The US military is gearing for war with the PRC around 2027, so I expect sometime in the next decade for a serious war.

Can you share a reference for this? I've seen similar claims but for the PRC military. If they're finishing their upgrades at around 2027-2028, shit is really gonna hit the fan.

With fucking nukes I might add.
