Israel is like Pakistan..in the sense they cannot be allowed to fail..because of their nukes. And Israelis are much smaller than Pakistan geographically and population wise making them all the more dangerous. Any sign they are going down and that they cannot redeem the situation using conventional power you can be sure that they are taking the entire middle east with them..including the most important places..places that start with 'M'. So if I were a Muslim, I would be the last one wanting to see Israel fall.
