Interesting that it's the influence/disinformation that caused this, not the open secret that they're a rogue nuclear armed state. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samson_Option "Most European capitals are targets for our air force... We have the capability to take the world down with us. And I can assure you that that will happen before Israel goes under."

I really don't know what Israel's long term goal here is? Fighting a war with a group of people who vastly outnumbered you and who are known if never giving up or forgetting means it will never end. it's been going on since 1948. you'd figure they'd realise this approach isn't working by now? I guess this is perfect for right wing governments, a war that doesn't end, and there probably is no plan part the next election.
