Could be. But IF it happens, then it probably won't happen the way most people expect.
For example, many people seriously believe Iran is developing the atomic bomb to attack Israel or some other country. That's ridiculous! Even the iranian government would never attack another country with an atomic bomb. They know perfectly well that Iran would be completely destroyed within days. There are leaked documents that prove that the CIA estimates the probably of Iran actually attacking another country as low as 1%. An important israeli military strategic has also been quoted saying almost the same.
The real fear is not an iranian nuclear attack, but a nuclear "defence" - namely, an iranian nuclear retaliatory strike.
And that is quite possible. There are severe indications that USA, Israel and Saudi-Arabia will attack Iran in the near future. And that will probably be the day the third world war starts.
