The Technological Superiority of Israel since 1967
(Al Arabiya) Abdulrahman al-Rashed - More than 4,000 people were killed or injured in two sophisticated technical operations carried out by Israel against Hizbullah, using pagers and walkie-talkies. Egypt's Abdel Nasser complained about Israeli superiority half a century ago, and today the gap has doubled, making the idea of change through armed force nearly impossible, if not naive. What makes Israel superior is its focus on intellect in the field of technology, which has granted it continuous victories to this day in both peace and war and has distinguished it economically despite the small size of its markets. For Hizbullah, like Iran, its strength lies in its willingness to sacrifice its fighters, as well as recruiting cheap fighters from Lebanon, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Yemen, and adapting cloned weapons from Russia and China. These wars will continue because one side is diligently working to develop its capabilities, while the other side is entrenched in metaphysical beliefs and places no value on the loss of human lives.
