#1 This limited arsenal "does not give us the ability to be part of any regional war,"

A very rational stance, which suggests it is unlikely to be the HamAss Plan du Jour. But let me suggest a possible scenario: the moment the HamAssians poke their heads out of their hidey-holes, the IDF comes down like a (metric) ton of bricks, no holds barred, no quarter given and most importantly, no concern for collateral damage, for they have greater concerns than your annoyances and want to get back to the Main Event as soon as possible. You will have your bumper crop of rubble and dead - women, children, bunnies, kittens, and misc. civilians - but the world's attention and news cameras will be focused elsewhere.

An unappealing outcome for most, but given the genetic predisposition to Glorious Failure that seems endemic in the Arab world, I'd bet money on it.
