In a scenario where Israel is pulled in to a war with Syria and Iran, what are the possible results. I dont want this to become a political post, this is just a military analysis.
What would happen.
Its likely that Israel will emerge as a winner, but do you believe such a conflict would set back Israel many years?
Will Israel be temted to deploy nuclear weapon?
etc

I think Israel will appear victor, mainly because Syria basically have 70's relics for it's militatry and if Iran gets involved, then that gives Israel and America the excuse it needs to bomb them, so I think Syria and Iran will to Poxy fighting instead of direct on combat. I don't really see Israel using it's nuke's. However they've been doing alotta Damage to lebanon, and for what, two soilders, so I don't know.

Im pretty sure Israel would win fairly easily. Simply because it would one on one Israel v. Syria since Iran would have to cross Iraq either through the air or the ground and I dont know if you know but there are a few Americans in Iraq right now, and I dont think they would let Iranians through to you know, fight one of their biggest allies.

The question is though what the rest of the arabic countries would do if Israel would try and conquer too much of the countries. And I am not so sure that US would help Israel too much either (because they need their arabic allies) but they wouldn't stop them from attacking though.
