"100 kilo HE in an IED on the side of a road takes out the tank."

Even as an IED (rather than a "human mine," as mentioned in the posted piece), over 200 lbs. of compact demo would be expensive in more ways than one for the generic Arabs in Israel. And the trash that they make would be huge at that kind of weight.

They could avoid another defeat and more easily find a home with their friends, allies and neighbors in western Europe.
