Earlier this month, the U.S. and Israel launched a joint attack on Iran, killing the country's Supreme Leader. Iran then fired back with waves of missiles and drones across the Middle East. By the end of the weekend, people all over the world were doing the same thing — opening their phones and googling the term "world war." In today’s podcast we’re going to discuss what defines a world war, and get to the bottom of whether or not we’re already in one.
