In return they will attack everything within shooting distance and that will spur attacks from other nations. When Iran eventually loses, and they will, this will spur outbreaks of violence from every corner of the globe from muslim extremist groups. This will in turn create many responses like the ones after 9/11 causing a worldwide crackdown on terrorism, causing much racial profiling and more tension. I don't think it will cause World War? but it will cause World Chaos for sure.
