#1 So we have a openly terror state on the southern border of an ally; we have a de facto terror state on the northern border of an ally. At least 2 states openly support terror attacks on Israel.

What happened to the Global War on Terror? Does Israel really have allies?

#2 Not really.
Europe wouldn't cry or it would celebrate the fall of Israel. Asia couldn't care less.

Besides some friend in the US, Israel is on its own.

#3 The SA-7 is not that much of a threat to helicopters if they use flares : it is a first generation MANPAD and not particularly effective. What it is good for is terror strikes on airliners and shutting down airports due to security sweeps.

#4 So shut off the water and power or quit griping.

#5 Iran, Syria and/or their non-state clients

This is the shit that's gotta end. Nations known to be sponsoring terrorism and proxy agggressors must be shut down. Non-State clients are the sharp end of a stick who's handle lies in Islamabad, Riyadh, Tehran and Damascus. Our current GWoT strategy is like using streetsweepers to fix a geysering sewer main. We need to dig out the responsible parties with a backhoe and make sure the shit flows downhill where it belongs.

#7 I agree that Israel continues to feed the fire that wants to burn it. At best, they should have an energy and water ultimatum. Stop the rockets, or stop drinking.
