Israel still thinks it is invincible against its Arab and Muslim neighbours. 6m Israelis against 600m Arabs and Muslims. How is Israel able to come up on top when the Arab and Muslim nations have numerical superiority?
Israel's strength is basically because of the Americans behind them. They rely on air power and tanks on the ground to overcome the odds against the Arabs and Muslim nations. The latter must think of a war strategy that can overcome these disadvantages, to neutralise the American support, the air power and tanks.
America is far away, though it has built up a network of military bases in the region for logistic support. But these can be neutralised if the Arab and Muslim nations are united to cut them off from supporting the Israelis. The Houthis have proven that the American warships, the aircraft carriers, can be blocked and kept away from the region eg anti ship missiles all along the northern African states to keep the American warships out of the Mediterranean Sea. The Houthis and Iran can keep them away from the Persian Gulf and the Red Sea.
After this war with Iran, many of the Israeli air bases would have been crippled, limiting the power of Israel air force to strike at neighbouring Arab and Muslim states freely, unrestrained. It would be a different matter if the war is fought inside Israel, in the big cities. The Israelis would no longer be able to bomb freely inside Israel, in their big cities against their own people and infrastructure.
The tanks are no longer that formidable with anti tank rockets and missiles and drones. Tank drivers are the most dangerous and vulnerable profession, easily taken down by rocket launchers or drones. Israeli tanks would not pose much of a threat anymore and cannot fire at random inside Israeli cities. They can be taken out easily
The Arab and Muslim nations may want to take full advantage of their numerical superiority and launch a massive attack with ground forces deep into Israel using FIBUA ie Fighting In Build Up Area. The Israelis, like the Americans, like to fight in other people's land, away from their homeland, where they can unlease the full force of air power and tank power. Fighting inside Israel will mean tying their hands and legs. They will have less freedom to blow up everything with heavy weapons, not against their own people and homes and infrastructure.
Logistical support for invading forces should not be a big issue with the Arab lands next to Israel. The numerical superiority of Arab and Muslim forces inside Israel, with only a hundred thousand fighting soldiers would be no match to the millions of soldiers that the Arab and Muslim nations can bring in. And with limited or no support from air power and tanks, the Israelis would not stand a chance. Even the Americans would have to think carefully when dropping bombs into Israeli cities filled with Israelis and Israeli homes.
This is guerilla warfare turning upside top. Instead of surrounding the cities from the countryside, instead of swimming in a sea of friendly people, it is fighting deep in the cities and swimming among the enemies. Israel cannot afford a long protracted war inside Israel. Their lives will be ruined, their economies and industries would come to a standstill.
The next phase of this war with Iran, with more bombings from Arab and Muslim nations, should be follow up with a massive invasion of Israel by Arab and Muslim forces to overrun Israeli cities. Fighting inside Israel, in Israeli cities, is the weakest link in Israeli warfare and defence strategy. Their advantage is using air power to flatten Arab and Muslim cities, indiscriminate bombing, killing everyone in the land. This is not possible inside Israel. Something they would not want to happen.
6m Israelis against 600m Arab and Muslims saturated in a small patch of land called Israel.... Even Americans would have to think twice dropping bombs inside Israel, in Israeli cities on Israelis.

Iran is not as backward a country as the USA and the West would like the rest of the world to believe with its propaganda machine churning out all the negativity against the country.
It is the same modus operandi as what the USA and the West had been doing against China over the decades, now being totally demolished by Tik Tok and Rednote, on top of foreigners visiting China to see for themselves the reality. They were shocked to find China even more modern and futuristic, the Chinese living comfortable lives than what their preconceived brainwashed mind had envisaged before visiting. Almost all those that visited China now knows they had been lied to for ages, except those with ulterior motives seeking out reasons to demonize China further, like criticizing security cameras lining the streets.
The Iranians (Persians as they were called before) are not as backward and are more sophisticated technologically than what the USA and the West may choose to believe. They have a long history, far longer than the USA and have survived revolutions, civil wars, earthquakes, sanctions and assassinations of top leaders and yet continuing to function. Netanyahu may gloat about taking out their leader to ignite a regime change. He is delusional.
Trump and Netanyahu does not understand the culture of Islamic Iran and talks about assassinating Khomeini. Death is not something they fear. Death is equated to martyrdom, a thinking that the West does not understand.
In Haifa, Israel, an Indian worker wanted to enter a shelter bunker after warning sirens went off, but was blocked. "Belongs to Jews only',' they said. This even after many Indians working in Iran doubled as agents for the Israeli Mossad.
Iran is sold by the Indian snakes. Too late.
Yet India is supporting Israel against Iran. The Indians never learn. When the USA was fleeing Afghanistan, they used an airport in Kabul as base. Countries evacuating nationals were given a place to do so, but when India wanted to evacuate its citizens and needed a slot, they were denied. India always betted on the wrong horse and gets kicked in the groin and still goes back for more.
The Arab and Muslim states have always been on the receiving end, waiting to be attacked and bombed by Israel. When are they going to attack and bomb Israel and fight in the streets of Israel, ie occupied Palestine land against the illegal occupation forces?
Israel's attack on Iranian nuclear power sites is to cause a nuclear disaster in Iran. Why are the Iranians not doing the same to Israel?
But IAEA says no leaks. Funny but true.
Excellent strategy, worthy of inclusion in Sun Tzu's art of war, if it isn't there already.
From pushing Iran into not making nuclear weapons, the USA and Israel are now pushing Iran with no choice but to build a nuclear deterrent. Even if Israel were to destroy all the present Iranian nuclear facilities, it will not prevent them from acquiring nuclear weapons going forward. It is now a necessity and a priority for Iran to have a nuclear deterrent like North Korea.
There is still one Iranian nuclear site that is on the radar of Israel and the USA - Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant located deep inside a mountain. Iran is reported to be building another facility even deeper underground than the one at Fordow.
It is believed that Israel is trying to drag the USA into the war and using its 30,000 pounds bunker buster to penetrate the facility at Fordow. Some analysts have doubts about the bunker buster being able to do its job to penetrate into the facility, with new bunker building technique and strategy put in place on the surface to deflect the bomb sideways to mitigate damage and penetration.
