[quote=Anonymous]No WWIII. Israel is deliberately limiting targets it strikes, sending a message rather than inflicting a comprehensive military defeat this time. Iran is incapable of projecting significant power; it can harass opponents directly and through proxies but lacks the capacity to win a direct sustained conflict against Israel. This is just another round in tit-for-tat gestures, which neither side will interpret as sufficiently impressive to cause an enduring cessation of hostilities. Ultimately, Israel has a nuclear deterrent and has ample historical reason to employ it defensively if a threat is seen as existential. Even then, the conflict is unlikely to expand outside the region. [/quote]
