"No Jew will remain alive once Jordan is conquered. You are the number one enemy for Muslims ". The first video in Hebrew of the Islamic State was published on the network a few days ago.
Just as we write to you, the video should have been removed from the Mossad. The man in the video, obviously masked, speaks fluent Arabic with a Hebrew accent. The rhetoric of the terrorists is the same as ever, with classic clichés of omnipotence and destruction.
"What you have seen and suffered so far is nothing compared to what awaits you. We have promised that not a single Jew will remain alive in Jerusalem and that we will eradicate this plague from the world. Ten of you have already been killed by our brothers in Palestine. Imagine what will happen when thousands of Muslims hunt you down. Your borders will not defend you. Your crimes will soon be punished. "
The video ends with the quotation of some verses of the Koran. It is the latest in a series of videos published by the Islamic State in which the deadly attacks against Israel were glorified.
The videos "Project to behead the Jews" and "Message to the Mujahedin in Jerusalem," were uploaded from Islamic sites under ISIS control in Syria and northern Iraq. Some videos released on social media were accompanied by the #BeheadtheJew hashtags. In one of the previous videos, terrorists also criticize Hamas, according to the caliphate, not to act against Jews in Israel.
"Hamas and Fatah do nothing. Both Palestinian groups are only concerned about their interests. Some of them are agents of the Crusaders and of the Jews ".
Beyond the fundamentalist rhetoric, attacking Israel could be a mistake for the Caliphate, which unintentionally put Israel, Hamas and Fatah on an equal footing. Israel is not Libya, Iraq or Syria. Indeed, it would be correct to say that Israel has no terms of comparison in the Middle East and the reason is simple: it has one of the most powerful armies in the world. The whole country is built to fight, resist and win flash wars, certainly not a conflict of attrition. The Israeli Air Force (350 fighter planes) has a targeting capacity second only to that of the United States. Tel Aviv also has the most powerful armored force in the Middle East (and Europe) with more than 3400 tanks, 1200 of which Merkava.
To understand even more the military footprint of Israel, another fact would be useful: the ability to triple the number of workers in a few hours from 180 thousand can reach 500 thousand units. In case of total war, 2,5 million, between men and women, would be recalled by the army. Finally, Israel has nuclear warheads loaded on Dolphin I / II submarines suitably modified to carry out deterrent missions. This massive ultra-technological force has not been structured to invade and maintain positions hundreds of kilometers away. Although technologically superior in every respect, Israel could not fight and resist on all fronts for a simple reason: they would still be too few. And Israel (which does not need a mandate from the international community to use force, as has been the case on several occasions), has shown the world its procedures if struck by attacks: fielding the army.
In memory, the sentences of the Israeli government return, a few hours after the disappearance of the three young students (later found dead): "Make them return home, return them to their mothers or we will avenge ourselves in our own way". A few hours later, a third of the Israeli army poured into the Gaza Strip and submarines prepared for the worst. Hamas (who never claimed the murder, but praised the episode) in the words of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in a speech addressed to the international community and the United Nations then said "you must save us from Israel".
