There's no doubt that a war is being stirred. With China and Russia stepping in and defending Syria from imperialist intervention, it places the West in a tight spot in their original plans. It was clear that the destabilization of Syria would've be a stepping stone for the West to eventually invade Iran when it's weakened. A war on Iran will also likely stir other countries to get involved on both sides of the war.
It's a frightening thought, because both China and Russia have stated clearly that they'll defend Iran if provoked. This could potentially turn into a global escalation fairly easily. Something no one here rationally wants for any country.
