"We possess several hundred atomic warheads and rockets and can launch them at targets in all directions, perhaps even at Rome. Most European capitals are targets for our air force. Let me quote General Moshe Dayan: 'Israel must be like a mad dog, too dangerous to bother.' I consider it all hopeless at this point. We shall have to try to prevent things from coming to that, if at all possible. Our armed forces, however, are not the thirtieth strongest in the world, but rather the second or third. We have the capability to take the world down with us. And I can assure you that that will happen before Israel goes under."

Ehh. This was touted at a time during the 1973 Yom Kippur war where they faced potential extermination and threatened Nixon for aid.

Honestly, while I don't fully like all the shit Israel does and I'm not sure how much of the threat is credible, at the same time I don't find it unreasonable to make that threat per that situation.

Makes sense to me from our point of view.

Yea I mean I agree with this point honestly.

Don't get me wrong, Israel is sketchy AF and I sure as hell despise international jewry, and yet I can't blame them for (under threat of invasion/slaughter) making bold threats.
