Will Israel be safe from the war???

I have a friend in Israel, and She is getting really stressed out, and i'm getting worried about her. DO you guys think she will be ok in Israel?? will the fighting spill over into her country.?:sweat:

I think she has more to worry about from Palestinians than anybody else.

As for any fighting spilling over from the U.S. invasion of Iraq, Turkey and Iran stand as the most likely to attack a post U.S. occupied Iraq. Terrorism against the U.S. stems from all the disdain islamic fundamentalists have had over U.S. military occupation of their lands. Muslims are well known for their dislike of jews, and with tensions thrown into a flare, I could very well see any close muslim nation taking the opportunity to attack jewish occupied Israel either during or after this conflict.

Any number of reasons could start more attacks on Israel. But with fighting going on, it will give other war prone countries the slight reasons they need to create their own offensive against a small group of people that they do not care for at all.

Well, duh.

I mean, the reason why the US and UK told all non-essential diplomats and personnel to leave the country is probably because it's starting to get really hot outside over there, right?

Then again if Israel actually does suffer substantially due to all of this, the whole war is a bit moot.

I can't wait for this decade to be over.

Urm, Iraq has few if any missiles capable of reaching Israel left.
And none of the muslim countries will attack Israel after this war has ended, terrorism might increase tough.

Israel probably has more nukes everyone in region COMBINED. It's our heavy-hitter in the mid-east and as long as the US supports it it is safe from anything but small scale/terrorist attacks.

Urm apart from some ancient US nukes in Turkey still pointing towards the former USSR Israel is the ONLY country to have nukes in the region(Pakistan is not really middle east) Israel didnt sign the non proliferation treaty and unlike other countries who have em never agreed to not use em pre emptively either.
Mind you officialy they dont have em, yet its a worldwide known fact that they do.

I am assuming some countries in the middle east have nukes and aren't telling. There are unofficial numbers, but they vary so much it is hard to tell who's got what.

Nah they dont.
If they did we would know.
As it is most states there dont even have nuclear capabilities.

Nuclear capabilities and purchasing of warheads and missiles from secondary sources are not unheard of. Can you really be sure that no one else has nukes?

Yeah we can be pretty sure.

Everyone can make a radioactive bomb tough.
Regardles none of the countries in the middle east apart from Israel has the capabilities to make one(The fabrications of the US govrnment to prove Iraq was still pursuing a nuclear program pretty much proved that none of em(including Iraq have the capabilities)
