U.S. and Israeli forces bombed Iran on Saturday amid ongoing peace talks between Iran and the U.S. Explosions could be heard across Tehran. In a statement, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz declared a "special and permanent state of emergency" across Israel. The Israeli government described its attack as "preemptive."

I find this WW3 aspect rather ridiculous and America-centric thinking. Pretty much everyone is staying out of this and theres no signs of the US sending troops in. This is just a repeat of the last operation they did, maybe in a bigger scale
In regard to WWIII, focusing only on the current Israel/US-Iran conflict seems like rather America-centric thinking. Russia invaded Ukraine over four years ago and is still fighting in their territory.

China is continuing to claim the territorial waters of their South-East-Asia neighbors and engage in regular ship rammings to secure it. Israel has bombed Palestine, Iran, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, Qatar, and Tunisia in just the last year. Russia-backed ships have been cutting undersea telecom cables. And a Chinese invasion of Taiwan seems imminent.
Whelp, it looks like Star Trek was on the nose. This is probably the year World War III begins.

Instead of charismatic Khan Noonien Singh future gets a sickly pale Mark Zuckerberg.
If you’ve been watching all of Trek, you’ll know that the Eugenics Wars no longer have a fixed point in time. WWIII on the other hand hasn’t changed.
Kurzman Treks don’t exist for me. There’s nothing Star Trek in them.
Horrible acidic projectile diarrhea of storytelling.
We’re in the Confederation Timeline from Picard S2. Khan didn’t happen in that iteration of events.
It fits. Awful season, awful reality.
Agh, fuck. Where’s Q when you need him?
He’s who gave some dipshit the idea to make Trump reality TV star and started all this.
