Israel is a tiny country.

We are not.

WWII was fought without sealing our borders.

Did you call for Reagan to be impeached?

"Israel is a tiny country. We are not."

Israel's GDP is tiny. Our's is not.

"WWII was fought without sealing our borders."

WWII was fought against recognized governments using recognizable militaries who did not have access to nuclear weapons. This war is being fought against unknown enemies using unrecognizable paramilitary units who do have access to nuclear weapons.

In other words, you're saying we should have fought WWII like we fought the War of 1812. Different war; different tactics.
