For a world war there generally is a chain of countries that get involved in a conflict. I just don’t see what countries will help Iran.

One possibility is that with Israel focused on Iran and Gaza, other countries take it as an opportunity to attack Israel. The U.S. escalates in defense of Israel, other countries escalate and start including U.S. bases as targets (becoming defacto allies of Iran in the process), and it all spirals from there.

It's been a slow start, but it started in Ukraine. So far it's been Ukraine then Iran. Next is likely Cuba or Mexico. Cuba for regime change. Mexico for 'the cartels'. Once the final straw hits, then things will escalate faster
