It's possible you are right. But you ignore the reality and complexities. They have improbably stood so far. The US backing is going to be unwavering. Any idiot who thought Trump would stop Israel is just that - an idiot. Trump will provide them everything they need and more. Just look at his past track record. They are the only stable ally in the region. If anything, putting Kamala in would have weakened them.

Their enemies are not on the level they are. They learned in their last encounter with Hezbollah what complacency does and this time they are walking over them. They stepped up their intelligence too. They are better organized, better equipped and better led. Throw in the "Hey we actually have Nukes" bit and Israel is going nowhere. The Saudi's are not interested in eliminating them and couldn't anyhow. Israel is a big counter to their arch nemesis anyhow - Iran. There is Egypt, but they are also not interested in conflict with Israel. There is nobody else worth mentioning.
