#5  Could Iran draw Israel in by occupying the Golan Heights with Hezzies?

Not happening. They're barely beating the rebels. Estimates are of 2000 KIA, accompanied by a lot of breast-beating and sackcloth and ashes. Another major clash with Israel would be much higher casualty. The Iranians want to keep Hezbollah alive, not cripple it with mass desertions.

#3  If ISIS goes up against Israel they will quickly be destroyed, I think. Israelis fight like Western professional armies, not like Arabs. A few days ago the IDF released a brief video of a strike on IS in the Golan last year.

This seems to be happening now. How will/should Israel respond?

Thank goodness it's now President Trump not Obastard.
