This time they have to play safe game as situation is very tricky. Their famous 7th world power is no longer a dual word power with UK refusing to back the US military plan. Then there is a possibility that diplomacy may win, or an all-out war on top of world's oil stock. Nothing is predictable. Yet, there is a catholic prophecy that says the present Pope is the last pope who would see the Rome being in flame and so on. Then, there is Nostedamus prophecy which suggests that a war with Iran, after isolating its supporters like Syria, would cost the US very dearly....
Hence JWs are really confused!
