POINT BY POINT..
#1. Israel has not "Won" any wars because every time they got rolling the USA and the UN made them stop.
The important thing is Israel has not LOST any wars because you can bet, if they were losing, the ARABS would not stop because they were told to do so by the USA or the USSR or anyone else.
#2. As far as Israel "ripping off" US technology, I hate to burst your bubble but they got stuff the USA is still working on.
IE: ARROW missile defense system which is already operational and expanding. The USA is still trying to get theirs to work right.
IE: Microwave crowd control device. They let the US Marines be involved in it, but it was Israel that did most of the work.
And do not forget, many of the scientists that worked on the Manhatten Project were Jews. We were lucky THEY helped US get the bomb before the USSR did.
Lastly, you had better check out who is writing most of the Microsoft Windows programs. It ain't us.
#3. Technology does not always win a war. Germany was much more advanced than the USA in regards to technology in World War II. They had jet fighters, buzz bomb cruise missiles, ballistic missiles, the Tiger Tank which could whip any other tank, and the first true modern design assault rifle. But technology did not win the war for them because we simply outproduced them making inferior products.
Now putting that aside, every time a US pilot goes up against an Israeli pilot at Red Flag at Nellis AFB, NV, the US pilot gets his *** whipped. (In fact the last time the USAF went up against the INDIAN AIR FORCE in a training exercise, the Indians whipped us also.) One on one, equal numbers, I would say the Israeli Defense Force is the best in the world.
Thank GOD we got more stuff than they do.

Well, what do you call the "7 days War" in the 1960's, Israel won against the whole ARAB Nation? That was way after WWII
Better think again on 'Isreal ripping off US Tech'. In some/many cases it's the other way around. Why do you think US supports Israel....Gives the Arms & Munition?... they're 'testing' it, indirectly and at the same time doing 'USA' dirty deeds....(Fighting Hamas, damaging Lebanon). They are 'very intelligent, creative and inventive people'....look up Israel and it's Accomplishments.
Yes, Russia was/is a close second and China is not far behind. As for 'real technology', not war/weapons....How about Japan?
B-T-W, What was the 'last war USA won'? WWII I'd say.....Viet Nam was a wash as is the Iraq war.
You need some LEARNIN, BOY.....Stop listening to "FOX NEWS"!

Israel didn't exist during world war 2, so to say that they haven't won a war since then (implying that they won ww2) is ridiculous. This is just the first sign of how uneducated you are on the matter.
Israel has won many wars since it was created including the independence war (started after Israel was created in 1948) the Yom Kippur war, the six day war, etc. Other wars are in debate was to who the winner is, it's all a matter of perspective, for example the war in lebanon. Personally, i think both sides lost - there doesn't always need to be a winner in a war.
Israel has more patents per capita than any country on earth, so to say that they "rip off" american technology is inaccurate. that would be Japan.
don't state things as correct, or worse, that "all agree" they are correct, when nothing could be more untrue.

Israel also has, arguably, the world most formidable Air Force. That, and just because it is sacred ground to almost every major religion in the world, anyone that makes a serious conflict with Israel will have half of the world going after it.
So not so much Israel you have to worry about, its the other countries that dont want to Israel tarnished.

Get your facts correct prior to posting a question. Israel as won many wars. They did not even exist during WW2. Israel is a large producer in the high tech industry. I have no concept where you obtained your "facts" from.

Israel did not exist as a nation until after WWII.
Exactly which war did they loose?
They have been attacked by as many as 6 Arab countries and have seized ground that they hold to this day.
The losers are still whining about that.

Israel military is equal to the strength of any Nuclear power because they have nuclear weapons and the ICBMs to carry them.
