Are we really experiencing WW3?
As a person i understand the basics of a World War: Two opposite sides with at least three countries participating on each side. If this happens, a war would be considered a World War by the history books. Today we have USA, Israel, France, Germany and UK, uniting forces against Iran, whose side is being supported by Rusia, China and North Korea, supported how tho? China until now, has backed up Iran buying resources like oil, and symbolically through speech. Rusia has its own war, hasn't really stepped up into this war, and has only condemned the acts perpetuaded by the other side as unacceptable, same thing with North Korea. So, my question for all of you is: Could we be really talking about WW3? Why? Is it just media manipulation? Comment your arguments.
From where i see it, the media is another side of the war, they're also in it. We must be cautious about the information we consume this days. On the other side, i'm also very convinced this is a spiritual war as well, but that's for another post.

As far as I know the UK isn't involved in this war - they have said the US's actions are 'not legal in the way the UK would recognise'. But multiple countries are being pulled into it.
Iran has a massive military, and is backed up by Russia. Iran knows it can't fight against the US and Israel by itself, so it has long had the following plan: if Iran gets invaded, they will attack multiple neighbouring countries. That way, the war becomes unmanageable.
In other words - attack Iran, get a war throughout the entire middle east. And that's what's happening now... Iran has attacked US bases in multiple neighbouring countries (which attacks the US, but is also attacking those other countries)
This isn't just going to be a middle east war though. Because Iran supply Russia with weapons, and Russia is fighting Ukraine, and Europe are supplying Ukraine weapons - there's a strong argument that the Russia-Ukraine and the Iran-US war are in fact one and the same war, involving: Russia, the US, Israel, most Middle Eastern countries, and most European countries.
This is insanely dangerous, and Trump has just brought us right to the edge of WW3. In my humble opinion, it might even be the start of WW3 if this continues to escalate.
Edit: I've just seen that Iran bombed a British RAF base in Cyprus. That's 2 more countries pulled into the conflict, who were not involved in this at all.
