Open War, Open Thread

So.

World War IV or just another pointless Middle East dust-up between Israel and her neighbors? Or something in between—a Falklands or even an Indian subcontinent-sized tussle?

The drone/missile attack on the Israeli ship is a surprising development. But it still seems the key tripwire remains direct Syrian involvement in a fight with Israel.

Should that happen, I'm not real certain where the next stopping point comes. Ideas?
