The Israelis are brilliant people, but they have two organic weaknesses.
One, they explicitly trust government.
Two, they are unable to tell the difference between a friend and an enemy.
“...they are unable to tell the difference between a friend and an enemy...”
Not for nothing, but Israel has shown that it can figure out where inbound rockets are coming from.
To my knowledge, the U.S. has never mistakenly been retaliated against by Israel for a rocket attack.
