It simply is terrible what is happening right now. Between Russia vs Ukraine and Hamas vs Israel, I don't know what the world is coming to.

I honestly wish I knew more of what’s going on but I know there are lots of atrocities being committed right now and it’s so awful.

I hope this doesn't lead to another world war!

Me too! I wish thinking the same thing not long ago.

From what I've understood of it - Hamas - attacked Israel or did something to /in Israel causing Israel to then respond like it has. However that being said - what Israel is currently doing is coming under genocide and it is now a war between Israel and Palestine/gaza. Israel is committing war crimes by attacking hospitals etc, neither country is in the right, its awful what's going on.

I have seen a couple of people post in this thread about the situation with Israel and gaza/palestine potentially triggering a world war.. I highly doubt this will trigger a world war, given neither country is a NATO country and from what I understand - a world war is only triggered when a NATO country is attacked and threatened causing the other NATO countries to become involved , thus triggering a world war. All the NATO countries can do is supply weaponry, ships and fleets, and air planes, but we cannot get involved.

Yes it does increase the risk of terror attacks etc in countries. But it is very unlikely to trigger a world war.

The situations are worrying, Ukraine and Russia is worrying Israel and Palestine is worrying. But these are wars between countries not the world. The war in Ukraine has been going on for nearly two years now.

Palestine and Israel have not got along for years. as worrying as it is, they have been at war before and a world war was not triggered by it.

As to what to do about the situation in general is a tricky one. maybe one day all wars will end and everyone can just get along.

[FONT=""][COLOR=""][SIZE=""]battles between humans have existed since prehistoric times. this is nothing new. palestine is not at fault here, it's the hamas. but israel isn't any better either. like the previous poster said, there won't be a world war 3. unless the hamas, israel, or russia start attacking neutral countries out of nowhere but that's not gonna happen.

it's silly how some of y'all are over reacting to this. please educate yourself. learn about the back story of the conflict between israel and palestine, ukraine and russia.[/size][/color][/font]

Thanks for the information!
