As simple as you can get:

If all this kerfuffle going on at the moment escalates to world war 3, where the west, Israel and any other eastern ally goes against the middle east. Who do you think would win?

I'd say Israel would win any invasion it wants to launch in the middle east of course the rest of the world would stay out of it so it wouldn't be WWIII just part of the ongoing global war that has been happening since the Russo-Japanese war (yep too much channel 4 for me)

Israel would ultimately lose in a long occupation especially if it uses the trademark Israeli heavy handedness so you could say that no one would win (though Israel would lose the least)

Lets see. The side that is Allied with the USA. So that would be the west I suppose.

This is a hypothetical situation, in this situation the rest of the western world (except from the completely neutral countries) will get involved.

In short, cockroaches, undertakers and rich defense contractors win, at least for a while. Everyone else loses.

depends really right now the only country supporting Isreals back is the U.S so the world wins....and we get lots of snow yay! (albeit being rather black and with a texture of human skin)

but if its the supporters of Israeli sovereignty VS those who want there land back I'd say the West because they have all the guns and there fighting about 3 piss poor nations

The West wins by default. If it looks exceptionally grim, the nuclear arsenals of Israel, the UK, the US and France light off all over Irans ass.

There are two ways to answer the question:

1) "The West wins!"
2) "In such a war, no one really 'wins'..."


Option one and two seem to both be reasonable responses.

In any response based in reality, the Middle East loses.

It's not even a question worth debating. One of the most amusing things about the Middle East is that their entire scheme is based on the assumption that America is too much of a nice guy to exercise full retaliative strength against them.

If we really, really wanted to, every country in the Middle East could be in total anarchy in less then a week - without nukes. We pwn them massively in every form of military strength, and with the airforce alone we could bomb all of their capitals, military bases, and energy generation centers. *bam* They've fallen apart.

Look at what Israel, a speck on the map that receives most of its military funding from the US, is doing in Lebanon right now, and compare it to what the hugely larger, wealthier, and more powerful US could do if the stupid tinpot tyrants truly evoked the wrath of the sleeping giant.

If the U.S. really got serious, do you think they'd care where they can and can't fly?

yep the world could kick Americas ass if it got serious and actually started funding are own militaries instead of just getting America to have a base in the country hell Europe could beat America senseless if it got a year or two to prepare never forget that. (but if it came too it a nasty set of embargos could cripple an already weak U.S saving us some trouble)

Also note aircraft make a habit of getting shot down when there not wanted somewhere especially slow cargo planes

Like they'd have a year or two.

Who says we'd start with slow cargo planes? I supposed we'd have to cut a path through any countries in the way.

of course we would it took months to prepare to invade Iraq Imagine how long it would take if your bases in Europe were overrun and thus had to sail an army across the atlantic also note every hour America would get weaker and weaker whilst the world would only get stronger

Who says we'd start with slow cargo planes? I supposed we'd have to cut a path through any countries in the way.

wouldn't happen America can't win a fight either way it goes there is just too much in the way and too many scores to settle especially if you try to cross through China (who would love to take the U.S place as soon as it gets "serious")

a) Right, like in the event of a world war we really give a shit about whether you want us to fly over your borders or not. If you have a massive anti-aircraft system and the capability to detect stealth bombers, take a shot.

b) Wow, to hear a European talking about loans or ungrateful allies....we not only saved your asses in WW2, we paid for your rebuilding afterwards.

I'm sure there are allot more fun ways to render stealth obsolete but here is one http://www.aeronautics.ru/tamara02.htm

also have you heard about the fact that we can pull out are investments anytime and leave America in the crapper after all why do you think China owns your ass

b) Wow, to hear a European talking about loans or ungrateful allies....we not only saved your asses in WW2, we paid for your rebuilding afterwards.

yep you helped us out in WWII (albeit after being attacked because if were paying for the arms it hardly makes it help does it) and paid for rebuilding (to save your own skin from the Russians) but that was over 60 years ago your debt is pretty much paid now but 60 years is a long time to make a dick of yourself something which America has been famously good at even during WW2 when America committed numerous war crimes that went unpunished
