One hypothesis, if Iran doesn't escalate more, is that Israel take advantage of not retaliating (which will be devastating for Iran and probably be close to a global war) and ask in return to have a harder stance on Iran. The world has been blind about Iran converting into a nuclear power and USA stance very soft for being USA, the top military and business power in the world.

The other hypothesis is retaliation... which obviously turns to a global war. I don't know if precisely a WWIII because the domestic situation of well developed countries is lazy regarding military action.

Israel can’t even defeat Hamas, let alone Hezbollah and definitely not Iran. Israel’s plan to bring the US into their war failed. Now they will be left to deal with their defeat against Palestinian resistance.

At least 8 hours after it seems I am not that far [1].
