There is world attention on the tensions between Israel and its neighbors due to a long history of political, religious, and territorial conflicts—especially with Palestine and surrounding Arab countries. Key issues include disputes over land (such as Gaza and the West Bank), the status of Jerusalem, and the rights of Palestinians. Periodic outbreaks of violence, military actions, and humanitarian crises often draw global concern. Additionally, the involvement of major powers like the U.S., Iran, and others makes it a sensitive geopolitical issue that affects regional and global stability.
If the entire world united, YES, Israel could be defeated, but Israel's antagonistic neighbors do not currently have the capabilities alone to do this.
None. If you were going for the answer "Israel" then you have something to learn. In contrast to most of its immediate neighbors as well as many of the world's other nations, Israel has no official state religion.
Israel's most secured airline In the world is El Al because of its employment of armed air marshals, attention to screening, and thorough passenger interviews.
I don't think there's a definitive answer, but I wonder if it has anything to do with the September 11, 1978 Camp David Accord, which mapped out a peace plan between Israel and its neighbors.
Egypt has developed world renowned Mammy culture while Israel has world famous The Ten Testaments.
World Agudath Israel was created in 1912.
The Yom Kippur War in 1973 significantly altered the geopolitical landscape of the Middle East, leading to a shift in the balance of power between Israel and its Arab neighbors. It prompted the U.S. and the Soviet Union to engage more deeply in Middle Eastern affairs, ultimately resulting in the Camp David Accords and a peace treaty between Israel and Egypt. The war also influenced domestic politics in Israel and the Arab world, leading to a reassessment of military strategies and alliances. Additionally, it heightened tensions and ongoing conflicts in the region, laying the groundwork for future confrontations.
It is called the Dead Sea.
Most of the world does not see Israel as a cruel country. What the world sees is a nation attacked by all its neighbors four times in its first twenty-five years of existence, fighting for its life. Only the Muslim world sees Israel as cruel. If Israel's neighbors would stop the efforts to destroy Israel, quit bombarding Israel, stop the suicide bombers, and indicate a willingness to live in peace, then the rest of the world would be more willing to react as the Muslim world does to Israeli actions. But, if the Muslim world would be willing to live in peace with Israel, the Israelis would not be doing anything to object to. Everywhere else in the world, at all times throughout history, when you start a war with somebody and lose, you take the risk of losing territory. In the 1967 war Israel captured the West Bank, the Golan Heights, Gaza and the Sinai. Israel gave back the Sinai decades ago, and returned Gaza to Arab control several years ago. And immediately Arabs in Gaza started firing rockets and mortar shells indiscriminately into Israel. If you want the world's sympathy, that is not how to go about getting it. For sixty-two years Israel has been willing to live in peace with the Arabs. When the Arabs are finally ready, then and only then will the situation change. _ _ _ _ _ _ The above answer is one side of the story, an important side, but ONE side none the less. Israel illegally took land, against the laws of the body which founded it, the U.N., and then gave back part of the land that they illegally took, saying that they sacrificed for peace where as they actually gave what was not theirs to begin with. But because of religious and economic ties to, and sympathy for Israel, the U.N., backed specifically by the U.S., we decided to let it slide. And the rockets are only the Palestinians fighting back, to regain the freedom of their brothers.
To be completely fair to Iran, its leaders have argued that they wish to wipe Israel off the map, not the Jews. (There is just the slight complication that half of the world's Jews live in Israel.) Iran has wanted to create a sphere of influence in the Islamic World for a long time and has been thwarted by the fact that it is Shiite-majority which alienates its Sunni-majority neighbors. As a result, the Iranian antagonism towards Israel is a way for Iran to take a powerful position in the Islamic World and overcome this prime detriment.
The elections in Israel led to the victory of the extreme right (Benjamin Natanyaho). This elections led to a more tense relation between Palestine and Israel, and in fact, the world and Israel. The new Israeli government refuses international pressure to stop building the settlments in the West Bank. It pretty much affected negatively and transformed the conditions from bad to worse.
Not including the war from 1947-1949, Israel has been involved a number of major wars/conflicts, namely: 1. Sinai War - 1956 - Years of guerrilla infiltrators attacking in Israel over the border from Egypt, and after nationalization of the Suez Canal by Egypt, Israel, the UK and France (the latter two, the former owners of the canal) joined in an attack on Egypt. Israel held onto the Sinai peninsula for a few months, and the United Nations Emergency Force (UNEF) was created as a buffer between Israel an Egypt in Sinai, and the Sinai was nearly completely demilitarized. This is known in the Arab world as "The Tripartite Agression." 2. Six Day War - 1967 - After Egypt closed the Straits of Tiran to Israel(an international waterway), and Israel's neighbors continually called for Israel's destruction, and amassed troops on the borders, Israel attacked pre-emptively in June of that year, decimating its neighbors' armies and tripling the land under its control, in 6 days. This is known as "The Setback" (Al-Naksa) in the Arab world. 3. Yom Kippur War - 1973 - A two front attack by Egypt and Syria on Israel that was launched the Jewish Day of Atonement, was eventually repelled by Israel, at a heavy loss. Israeli intelligence was blamed within Israel, and governmental investigations were launched, which led to the dismissal of key establishment figures. This is known as the October or Ramadan War in the Arab world. 4. The Lebanon War - 1982 - After the PLO was kicked out of Jordan in 1970, they created a base in Lebanon, ad throughout the civil war (which began in the 1970s) began launching attacks into Israel, to which Israel eventually responded forcefully - invading, and taking over Beirut. After the war, a strip of land in southern Lebanon, known as the "Security Zone" was kept under Israeli control (along with the SLA - South Lebanon Army), to prevent attacks into Israel. This land was eventually evacuated by Israel in 2000. This is known in the Arab world as "Al-Ijtiah", The Invasion.
