    Probably provoke every neighbor until it’s a big active conflict in the entire region and then say they’re the only one capable of “maintaining peace” aka kill everybody so better start sending weapons.

      Israel already won against their neighbors and Iran in this war.

      The main impediment to Israeli military operations are morale and manpower of the soldiers. Reservists aren’t showing up as they used to. They are tired, some opposed to the war.

      The reservists serving had their lives on hold and their businesses fail. It’s not sustainable. It’s impacting the economy as well.

      The IDF is overextended or will be soon. It’s a people‘s army with everyone serving. Refusal to serve has forced political change before.

      Netanyahu isn’t secure in his power either. If the Shin Bet and army don’t agree with his policies, a government crisis is possible. Elections are expected over the next year as well.
