[–] febra@lemmy.world 45 points 1 year ago (1 child) Except Germany keeps delivering weapons to Israel, gives them diplomatic and political coverage, and apparently even has planes in the air to support Israeli fighter jets in their attacks on Iran. permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] Fusselwurm@feddit.org -23 points 1 year ago (4 children) you think WW3 is starting because of Israel?

I wouldn't say they're the only ones responsible, but they do share a large portion of the blame. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Mustakrakish@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago Yeah sounds like you're under deep rock for so long, you mistake the sky for an even larger rock. permalink fedilink source parent [–] gandalf_der_12te@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 1 year ago (2 children) Israel is not only at the very center of the world (look at maps: it's very much the geographic center.

I really suggest you look at an European map. Algeria/Mali are in the center of the map, depending on how much Antarctica is included. Maps are normally centered roughly around the region you buy them in. European maps are centered on the 0 meridian, because it fits so nicely while keeping the European countries around the center. The 0 meridian was just defined by the Brits as going through Greenwich. The bottom is cut of more, because Antarctica is less interesting than Canada, Greenland and Siberia. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Fusselwurm@feddit.org -3 points 1 year ago (4 children) I dont see the potential for global conflict. Israel and Iran have been trading blows for decades now. Some direct, many indirect. It's a regional conflict, and regional it will remain. Every now and then, Israel acts to prevent Iran from becoming a nuclear power – and honestly, we're all the better for it, the world does not need another set of religious crazies to have nukes.
