#1 move that would be an unprecedented step given decades in which the frontier has been a "frozen zone".

It was a "frozen zone" between Israel and Syria---is there Syria anymore?

#2 If "certain people" got out of the way, I think Israel would end up owning the entire Muddled East in a few years -- or at least half of Lebanon, a huge chunk of Syria, and the Gaza and Sinai. This time, they need to just go ahead and annex the territory, kick out the Ayrabs, and build a new and prosperous nation where there hasn't been one since the Phonecians.

#4 Sorry, #2, but IMO Israel may have the Nukes + IDF, but does NOT yet have either the Population Demograhy nor the Economy, + won't for a long time to come.

Israel will still find itself at a serious disadvantage or outnumbered even iff many US-World Jews move to Israel en masse, + wid no sign of any Pro-Israel andor Non-Aligned = ?Moderate" Muslims showing signs of interest in conversion to Judaism - TAKEN COLLECTIVELY, IT MEANS ISRAEL HAS TO LOOK AT OTHER VIABLE OR REALISTIC OPTIONS TO SURVIVE AS THE ONLY PRO-DEMOCRACY, PRO-WESTERN, JUDAIC/HEBRAIC STATE IN THE MUSLIM ME.

IMO the best thing the US-West can do at the moment is allow Israel to formally join NATO + EU, set up US GMD-TMD there + KSA [Jordan?], + get NATO-EU Citizens including Russians to invest + move there. IFF A DE FACTO PRO-PEACE PALEO SOVEREIGN STATE EVER COMES INTO BEING, ISRAEL IS GONNA NEED ALL THE WESTERN HELP IT CAN GET TO SUPPORT THE NEW POLITY.
