Is Libyan War A Planned Step Towards Wider Regional War in Middle East?

That's the thought that occurred to me after reading two articles from Ynet News. First you can read how the largely western supported 'Arab Spring' is being seen by a top Israeli general as leading to an "all-out, total war, with the possibility of weapons of mass destruction being used." So the west encourages a process which then gives the Israelis an excuse to nuke their arab neighbors? Another article from the same website explains how weapons are flowing from territory the American and Nato supported Libyan rebels hold, straight into Gaza. Thus Nato can be seen also here as aiding the path towards war. Could it be that a wider regional war is exactly what the powers in the West want?
