Re: Is Israel finished?
I'm not so sure.
I wanted to go to Israel many times but there was always a war or talk of war.
I like their food:

look at that wonderful Falafel:

I would enjoy walking through all the holy places as a tourist to experience
the history that shaped the world.

The Yanks are already there - ready for the war.

WASHINGTON -- The U.S. has kept an increased military presence in the Middle East throughout much of the past year, with about
40,000 forces, at least a dozen warships and four Air Force fighter jet squadrons
spread across the region both to protect allies and to serve as a deterrent against attacks, several U.S. officials said.
As attacks between Israel and Hezbollah sharply spiked this week, worries are growing that the conflict could escalate into an all-out war, even as Tel Aviv keeps up its nearly yearlong fight against Hamas militants in Gaza.
Hezbollah says Israel crossed a “red line” with explosive attacks on its communications devices and vowed to keep up the missile strikes it’s launched since fellow Iranian-backed militant group Hamas attacked Israel on Oct. 7, setting off the war in Gaza.
Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant — who has spoken repeatedly this week to U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin — has declared the start of a “new phase” of the war, shifting its focus to the northern front against Hezbollah in Lebanon.
So far, the U.S. hasn't signaled a troop increase or change as a result of the latest attacks, and there is already a beefed-up force in the region.
“We’re confident in the ability that we have there right now to protect our forces and should we need to come to the defense of Israel as well," Pentagon spokeswoman Sabrina Singh said Thursday.
