While Israel has the firepower to inflict serious damage on Iran, analysts told Al Jazeera, it lacks a clear strategy for translating military gains into the overthrow of Iran’s government. Air strikes alone are unlikely to achieve that objective, while a ground invasion would demand a far greater military commitment, they said.

The entire world teeters on the brink of nuclear war....

He's saying he has the tapes and Trump will escalate for him after the midterms.

They're willing to fight to the last American. The actual IDF is a bunch of incompetent cowards and bullies who would fold in an actual near-peer conflict.

It's actually kind of funny how anxious they are about losing any of their assets or lives. I recall an Israeli reporter on one of the US aircraft shootdowns early on saying something to the effect of "God thankfully it wasn't ours." Greatest ally indeed.

The IDF is a genocide masquerading as a professional military.

The IDF is not trained in war, its staff are selected to be most efficient at ethnic cleansing which has nothing to do with knowing how to fight a war and everything to do with institutionally suffocating empathy for the targets of the genocide.

These are two VERY different skillsets and the IDF would get stomped in an actual war.
