serious discussion: possible scenarios?

[TheOldBreed]

okay, after much thinking i have wondered what are the possible scenarios for the battles in which we fight in PR? aka, what would happen/what could happen in real life that would lead to the conflicts in PR?

i can see the possibilty of China and the US having a brief 'skirmish' over matters such as Taiwan.

what do you think people? what could happen that is so crazy that Russia and Israel will slog it out in the streets of Beirut?

Most if not the majority of battles are pretty unrealistic, or rather unforeseeable in the current political state. However, its more fun this way.

The Beirut situation at least.

Russian Troops Make First Mideast Foray In Lebanon For Centuries

Russia, which criticised the Israeli offensive in Lebanon, is now preparing a tentative foray into the turbulent region. It is due to fly 100 soldiers to Beirut airport on October 4 to take part in post-war reconstruction, its embassy said.

That was in 2006, you never know it could 'have turned nasty' and Russia got involved or something.

PR simply has no future history laid out as 1/ at our level it would be meaningless and 2/ would constrict the DEVs liberty to explore new areas.

Locking as this has been discussed in loops in the past.
