Israel's ambassador to the United Nations, Danny Gillerman, on Tuesday warned of a new "terror axis" between Iran, Syria and Hamas, which could
kick start "the first world war of the 21st century." Addressing the U.N. Security Council on a quarterly session to discuss international
terrorism, Gillerman asked council members if their governments would agree to al-Qaeda or the Kurdish group PKK running in elections. "Imagine
al-Qaeda or the PKK running in elections? A dictator's democracy is a dangerous false impression," Gillerman told the Council. Gillerman warned of
Hamas' venture in politics, saying "the world is witnessing a new alliance between Iran, Syria and Hamas, which
constitutes an axis of terror."

Israel warned Monday that a new "axis of terror" — Iran, Syria and the Hamas-run Palestinian government — is sowing the seeds of
the first world war of the 21st century. The Palestinians accused Israel of an escalating military campaign using indiscriminate force to kill
civilians and entrench its occupation.
The Israeli and Palestinian envoys traded charges at an open Security Council meeting held in response to the recent upsurge in Israeli attacks in
Gaza. It took place on a day that a Palestinian suicide bomber struck a packed fast-food restaurant in Tel Aviv, killing nine people in the deadliest
bombing in more than a year.
Recent statements by the Palestinian government, Iran and Syria, including one by Hamas on Monday defending the suicide bombing, "are clear
declarations of war, and I urge each and every one of you to listen carefully and take them at face value," said Israel's U.N. Ambassador Dan
Gillerman.

How close are we to World War 3? Has war been declared? It seems that the Suicide Bombing in Tel Aviv was the last straw for Israel. But will they
take action against Palestine? Will it come before the 28th when the Security Councel meets next. Palestine, and Syria have pledged to aid Iran if
attacked, will Iran aid Palestine if attacked by Israel?
