Be very careful what you wish. According to some IDF officers I spoke with at a missile defense conference in Israel there will be hell to pay. I was led to a map and told several things. One plan is to retaliate against all Islamic nations who are party to the attack, as well as those who have large crowds chanting approval, and nuke them using a map grid-square coverage to make these lands inhabitable (The countries party to the attackers go all the way up to capitals in the West if their diplomacy makes the conditions possible for that Islamic bomb attack). The second plan is to roll on Gaza with multiple Engineer and Mechanized units, bull dozing grid squares to the Sea, then talking down one slice of Gaza at a time, above and below ground. Survivors will be allowed to remain but never again to arm against Israel.

I had the impression that these plans were very definite. The officer used the term, cut the blood lines of the Islamic peoples of the Middle East. Also mentioned was that in every capital city worldwide where there is an Middle Eastern Islamic presence that there are Israeli soldiers who have an area assigned them to protect each Jewish community while at the same time again cutting the blood line of the enemy, everywhere. I am quite sure this plan if set into motion would end the nation-state wars between Israel and the Arabs by destroying all their population centers. The officer stated that the nukes would be delivered by various means, artillery, aircraft, cruise missiles, ballistic, man portable and sub based. The sub based would be the ones for final targeting, and after dealing with the remnants of habitable Arab soil, be turned against those who used Islam as a proxy against Israel (Russia provides Syria and Iran diplomatic and trade; the USA could lose a president for his betrayal).

I rather liked the idea to completely destroy the entire bloodline of an ancient enemy who has swore unto death to do the same. This is a very reasonable response. The Arabs/Islamists will lose for they exist mostly in the ME unlike the Jews who have spread across the world over the past two thousand years. This war would reduce Islam being remnants of nations exercising only terrorism without state sponsorship until either their demise or hiding dormant hoping never to be discovered.

Whew. That is a true Sampson plan.

Israel would probably be uninhabitable also.

Cutting the bloodline - it goes back to Sir Robert Thompson, Defeating Communist Insurgency...

I would elect the first scenario as highly possible and probable...

So...you saw The Map...pretty interesting...
