My Opinion is thus...
If all the Muslim and Arab wold attacked Isreal the United States and Great Britain woudbe treaty bound to supply Isreal for their protecton. I don't know if we are still entreatied to directly fight with them as was the case when Isreal was recreated after WWII. I believe that Isreal will hold its own if they continue to be resupplied by its allies.
In 1967 Isreal fought Lebbanon, Jordan, Syria and Egypts joint forces.
The Arabs attacked Isreal even though Britain had ruled the area before giving it to the Jewish people for the recreation of Isreal. They did this because the land had been under Arab nomad control after the Romans scattered the Isrealites up until WW 1 when the British gained control.
Anyway in 1967 the Isrealites took 6 days to defeat the combined forces, hence the name "The six day war". They had taken the Sainai pennensula, Golan Heights, etc and so forth as a buffer zone to help prevent future attacks as was entreatied. More recently Isreal had started to populate these areas which has become an additional tension to their neighbors. Although ever since Isreal had been recreated it has been under terroristic attacks. The world had not paid much attention until the new settlements were started.

Iran, Syria, and Lebanon... Oh boy! That's gonna hurt.
Jordan, Egypt, and Palestinians... Jordan's got good relations with Israel (well, relatively good relations). Egypt and the PLO, etc... Might be tough, but I'm gunning for the IDF.
Somalia, Ethiopia, and Al Qaeda... First, Somalia and Ethiopia are currently fighting each other. There's no reason for them to declare peace and attack Israel together. Besides, what would Ethiopia get out of attacking Israel?
From this, I can tell you this: Aside from any implausible elements, Even if Iran doesn't drop a nuke on Tel Aviv (which will be a nightmare), this war will be nasty. The combined armed forces of all those nations (aside from Ethiopia and possibly Jordan) will... well, I actually don't know, but have you considered the split between the Sunnis and Shias? That might be a problem.

Iran,Syria,Egypt yes, the rest can't get there !
Al Qaeda isn't an attack force.
Iran is the problem, but they have the fanatics, but not the ground forces.
If they do go for a ground assault, they have to go through Iraq.
At the end of the day if Israel think they may get beat then the Masada comes into operation.
End of conflict

First of all that secnario is rather unreal.
Second, even if that occurs, the Israel will have enough capabilities to strike back, especially to such under-developed countries like Ethiopia ans Somaila. The problematic choice are Iran with Syria together. They could have buried Israeli cities with chemical bombs and probably nukes.
Third, I think unconventional forces like Hezbollah and al-Qaeda would rather succeed. This is something credible. Just remember, Hezbollah could defeat Israelis in the recent war and Jewish army did not reach their aim - to disarm Hezbollah and get their soldiers released.
So, in the final analysis, it would be unlikely if those countries would attack Israel altogether without retaliation from Tel-Aviv, Washington and London. But such NGO's like al-Qaeda and Hezbollah would rather succeed in defeating Israel. No Armageddon would occur.

Armageddon:
No archaeological site in the world is so completely associated with cosmic disaster as Megiddo-a prominent ancient site in northern Israel identified by many historians and theologians as the earthly location of Armageddon, the scene of the final, apocalyptic battle between the cosmic forces of Good and Evil at the End of Days in the book of Revelation.

Toast. Israel would be toast. A lost cause. Hopefully, the international community would not intervene, because it would start a world war if they did.
I would like to see diplomacy take place, offer to give up the Israeli territory and welcome the Jews here to the US, Britain, back to Germany, etc.
Personally, as an American where all races and religions get along pretty well, I'd welcome a few million Israeli regugees to our country.
I'm not sure why someone decided the Jews couldn't come to our contries and contribute to our society in the first place, that they needed their own country, but, whoever decided to put Jews right in the middle of several nations, was probably anti-semetic themselves.

Israel is such a tiny country and if left alone they would live in peace. Why do so many countries hate them so much? They have contributed a lot to the world. Lots of computer stuff and they invented the cell phone! But if it came down to it Israel would nume them all and have a big parking lot.

They would be attacking their old land. See England used to be in control of that land. They gave alot of it to the Jews who renamed it Israel. The land that was given to them was already occupied by native Arabs, that is why there has always been war there. Thanks England. But down to brass tacs they'd demolish the place and probably start WW3.

if no one interferes israel loses. one problem though. israel will not allow it. they will use nukes,they have thratened it before to get the US involved in 1973. the result of the nukes mean a lot of involvement from other countries,resulting in one hell of a war. possibly the last. would europe stand by after nukes were launched against them by israel?

It could never happen because the Arabs never came to a conclusion about anything in their entire history.
