WHY is ISRAEL so STUPID?

Question

I'm not claiming Israel is stupid because I have a fondness for arabs... no not at all.
What does bother me however:

#1 Israel has the second most powerful airforce to America (in terms of pilot training and technology)
Why is Israel sending in ground troops when they could just blow those damn Hezbollah Sand critters sky high using JDAM bombs?
You can't do anything against a jet fighter if you have no Air force.


#2 Why doesn't Israel simply send a squadron of F-16's to blow Iran's nuclear reactor SKY HIGH before it goes online? They did the same thing to Saddam Hussein's reactor in OSIRAK years ago!

#3 Israel sees the world is anti-semitic and anti-Israel...why not just do what they want to those sand critters and ignore what the world says?

If I was General this war would be over by now. 100% of Hezbollah would be dead.

I think Israel is stupid because their Parliament right now, for the first time in history, is entirely civilian rather than former military.

Answer 1

Perhaps its because the government is civilian and doesn't completely know how to handle Hezbollah without destroying the Lebanon infrastructure.

Maybe Israel just wants to depopulate a buffer zone?

Answer 2

1. Because the Hezbollah uses Lebanese human flesh as protection for militants and Israel is trying to minimize civilian casualties, even if these civilians are Lebanese.
2. Because the Israelis are not stupid.
3. because Israel does not see the world as anti-Semitic and anti-Israel

Answer 3

1. As has been proven through many military conflicts, you can't win wars by air power alone.

2. It's a much more difficult military problem now then it was then. The Iranians are not what the Iraqis were back then. They have a sophisticated military and present a formidable opponent.

3. Because Israel still has to do business with the world.

Answer 4

#1. they know how to fight a war not like our shock and awe b.s. USA freaks our over war dead and in isreal that is accepted an d honored, thet are trying to graually to take the LAND and clear the people out while keeping the infrasrure intact so they can use it. prob also they are so pissed off they would rather see the look of death in their enemy too? we blow out a country and bring in contractors like haliburton all bout $$$

#2, Iran will be comming shortly usa and isreal are working on it behind the scenes. both want iran down, usa will let isreal strike firsrtrhen usa will back them up as the good guys vs. the terrorists.


#3 see #2 a month or so, haaah to the monday cease fire,just a usa-isreal ploy.

Answer 5

IRAN is so powerful that an strike on iran would mean Isreal wiprd off the map.
and they would kick us out of Iraq... without any dout
they will plow all of our bases and oil in the middle east

They have chemical and biological weapons AND STRONG ALLIES

if we attack they would be more than happy to teach and give terrorists some WMD to use agnist the US UK and ISREAL

Answer 6

You can never win a War w/out a ground invasion

You are a moron if you think an Air Campaign can win a war.

Answer 7

How can a country possess a human characteristic like stupidity? Do you mean to say the leaders are stupid? Next time you have something to say, try to make it sound more grown up. You might actually get people to agree with you that way.

Answer 8

Answer 10

rable rable thats all i hear. if you want to know why they are attacking w/ inf. thats because you have to knock out any AA and ground forces . you cant always do that by air. its like asking why we sent inf. in on D day. duh. and the jews have a right to be pissed they get blamed for a lot of ****. and i highly doubt you have any skills in leading and inspireing men. all you do is ***** it seems.
