1. What about thru Jordan?
Gerald Itzkowitz ,   Netanya   (10.24.19)
There has been reports that Iranian militia formations are being concentrated on the Iraq-Syria border with Saudi Arabia and Jordan. While I would not expect the Saudi forces to resist a strong attack from the Iranian militias it would not be a surprise if the Saudi military turned over their heavy weapons to the Iranian forces and it is a distinct possibility that since Jordan today is a majority Palestinian state that their army would do the same if an Iranian push moves into Jordan. This means there could be a surprise armored backed attack coming from Jordan into Israel. It is unreasonable to think that if Israel was not watching Jordan carefully that the Palestinians would warn Israel of a rapid advance of heavily armored Iranian proxies thru Jordan toward the border with West Bank Israel.
2. Israels enemies only want war when they r powerful enough

3. If they are not interested in war
Avi L.   (10.25.19)
If they are not interested in war it is the time to rise and hit

As Amiram Levin wrote the solution is "a crushing preemptive strike on Hezbollah" and Hamas too, their nemesis will be their internal opposition who will butcher for all their crimes, middle east style, Hama style, Tikrit style, with bone saws and cleavers
4. israel has had great soldiers, but weak incompetent generals

ehud barak ran away from southern lebanon, leaving allies to be
slaughtered by shia iran proxies.
barak declared at the beginning of the syrian civil war that assad
would be ousted within months.
barak's actions and statements demonstrate an arrogant, myopic
vision of israel's top military echelon since the six day war.
there is a lack of strategic vision and a lack of military preparedness.
the fear of losing lives or of causing casualties has paralyzed
israel's leadership.
were it not for the mossad and the average israeli soldier, israel
would be in an even worse situation.
it is only the average soldier that has saved the jewish state.
5. fake Benassi pontificates that Iran's a paper tiger
Rafi ,   US   (10.25.19)

6. Why does Chief Staff have a name for a Moshiach?
