People discussing these events as if they're seriously gonna lead to something are so funny to me. Oh wow, there's unrest in the middle east? Wtf that's entirely unexpected, how could this be? What an unpredictable turn of events that nobody has accounted for, surely something will happen this time.

No, nothing will happen, Iran will take it like a bitch because Israel is backed by america, they'll write a strongly worded letter, bark a bit about killing all the jews everywhere all at once, do nothing about it, and the world will move on as if it never happened.

Remember to always consult the graph:

In terms of Iranian retaliation I am fairly firmly on Team Nothing Happens given how technologically outmatched they are and how they seem to have already had their air defences and assets kerbstomped. meaning even in the case of some psycho radical coup they ain't able to do much even if they wanted.

What I am wondering is how long Israel is gonna keep bombing and how much they expand their operations until they get bored/decide its too expensive/the US pulls their chain as they have wanted this opportunity for a longass time and thus have the incentive to go bananas while they have the chance

Stupid but always asked question: How is this America's problem and why does every doomer gloomer zoomer want us to get involved so badly?

it isn't a problem for america, and nobody is getting involved (sent to the sandbox)

israel does not have the capability to launch an invasion into iran, and vice versa. both countries are essentially stuck seething at each other in perpetuity. iran pays hamas, hezbollah and ansar allah (houthis) to attack israel from time to time, israel launches air strikes against iran from time to time, that's all.

Mark this one down as one of the few prophecies Deus Ex got 100% wrong.
With the absorption of Palestine into the United Arab Front, it was inevitable that the coalition of nations first conceived by Iran in 2014 would turn their attention to Israel. Generations of Arabs who had grown up knowing of nothing but conflict with their neighbors were stirred to belligerence by the new power of the UAF; and emboldened by expansionist doctrines, plans were laid for a lightning-strike assault.
In March of 2021, the conflict that would become known as the Six Month War was ignited by a massed invasion. A carefully coordinated attack using infantry and armored elements, fighters and bombers, short-range ballistic missiles and limited littoral sea power struck at Israeli defense forces - but the key element of the engagement was the use of covert augmented operatives and cyber-warfare units to cripple defensive command-and-control networks and nuclear retaliatory strike capacity.

They were far too :optimistic: about Arab solidarity with Palestine, Arab military capabilities as would've been expressed by Hamas/Hezbollah/the SAA, and Iran's own military capabilities. (But then again in DX's defense, that came from the writers of Human Revolution, not the absolute prophet of God who wrote the first game.) It's already been more than 12 hours since the first strike and Iran hasn't gotten even one ballistic missile in the air yet, looks like it was Israel that shut down everything they had resembling a retaliatory weapon well ahead of time instead...

I think you're right, but I also think they will just do what they usually do: commit acts of mindless terrorism in other countries as petty revenge.

Arab armies can't fight. Some might have the shiniest military gear (like Saudi Arabia) but they can't fight for shit. Heck Saudi Arabia has hired mercenaries to do their dirty work in Yemen. Even the Turks with their vast army had massive issues against Kurdish militas. The only value they have is the shock value of insurgents who terroize people who can't defend themselves Or look at it this way: the horse militas in sudan would have been swept away with one MG armed helicopter
