When Iran joins the war in full capacity, the US needs to give them full attention. That leaves Taiwan open for grabs. Which they also need full attention for. Then there's still Ukraine and Russia making plays. I imagine if Russia ever wins in Ukraine, and there are wars happening in the Middle East, Taiwan, elsewhere, then they might make a play on the Baltics for instance. So US now has 3 fronts to deal with against multiple nuclear powers. And that is of course as long as the US stays the course and doesn't end up isolating from the rest of the world.
World wars happened because of a series of alliances pulling multiple countries into a large, singular war. Israel provoking multiple of their neighbors by attacking them and commiting genocide can absolutely draw the world into a war.
Even if your crazy scenario would play out (Europe giving up the Baltics? The US fighting a conventional war against China?), how would you put that on Israel for responding to Hezbollah's attacks? Iran tying up the US who you seem to see as 'World Police' and not those other countries just itching to attack their neighbours?
If you think 2024 exists in a vacuum and that Israel has no part in the "tensions" in the region, then there isn't much to talk about.
Sure. On the other hand: if your bottom line position is that Israel should dissapear and 'everything goes' until that happens, a) there are a lot of other countries where that case can be made and b) I don't think everyone killing everyone would be the thing that prevents WW3
