If you want to determine whether a war affects the global economy, examine a few things -- One being the GDP of involved countries, two being the total import and export products/volumes, and three being geographical locations (whether the country's near shipping corridors or critical airspace for flight logistics).

And so with that, it shouldn't pose that large of a threat. Israel has a high GDP, Palestine does not. And Israel could effectively wipe Palestine off the map if they wish.

Israel's calling this a "war" for PR purposes and to rally countries around them. Is it really a war when one side is so outmatched?
So, one has to wonder, if they are so powerful, why haven't they wiped the arabs off the map after 60 years of conflict? What do you think is keeping Palestine from total destruction?  If it's not a war then what is it, cat chasing mouse?
