... the reason is simple. Israel has one of the most experienced and skilled armies in the world. In fact the only thing we have over them is numbers. Maybe Israel is a big pain in the ass but over the years we created that monster. Jim Originally Posted by Mr MojoRisin

Here's the article referring to the "end-game"!

"ISIS may well want to conquer Israel. The map featured in the Daily Mail article "ISIS militants declare formation of caliphate in Syria and Iraq", purportedly an ISIS production, makes sweeping claims to vast swathes of territories which include Israel."
Here's someone else's opinion about the Israelis "amazing army"
"In the specific case of Israel, the Israeli military is more than capable of defending itself against attack. If, in fact, Israel was attacked by the Islamic State, I suspect that few governments would mind if Israel defended itself against this very unpopular emergent polity. If Israel somehow faced an existential threat from the Islamic State, then the Israeli nuclear arsenal would come into play. That would not be a conflict that the Islamic State could survive. I suspect strongly that the Islamic State knows this, and is concentrating right now on achievable goals."
BTW: The Kurds get along with the Israelis.
Some of you all are buying into the notion that the "ISIS" matter is tribal warfare.
