Some Fiction just isn't believable.
As much as I hate to disagree with the little Nazi, Lee is right. A weak nation does not mean its aggresive neighbors will overlook it, as much as it means a strong nation will cause its aggresive neighbors to attack it. You seem to be caught up in some sort of euphoria Raoul. Isreal has a long history of getting sacked. The Babylonians, the Greeks, the Romans. History does not favor the weak. Your logic is flawed.
