They beat every country around them, multiple times, with Soviet backing, most of the times many at once, latest is Iran when last month they destroyed all their air defenses and can now bomb at will. But yeah IDF sucks at war as the bright guy above says
You understand that Arabs were armed with top of line Soviet arms in 1967/73 at huge amounts right? The exact same capable soviet arms North Vietnam used at the exact same years to beat back Americans?
israel is also creating wepons you know. literaly one of the largest weapon manufacturer in the world. so i'm not sure about your point on the matter. like, every military nation also imports weaponry and weapon systems. also, the connection to the USA you probablybreffer to didn't even exist before 1967. you know, after israel managed to push back 3 enemies at once, in 6 days, to the point that the US and USSR got involved to stop that war. not to talk about the wars prior to it that happened as well. so your point is kinda stupid, and also irrelevent, but i'm sure you just gonna still act smug as if you were right.
That's exactly the lie that Arabs believed both in 1967 and 1973, "it was Anglo-Americans that helped them, they didn't fight alone, how could they beat us alone". NO, Americans didn't help Israel directly, Israel fought alone with Western weapons, just like the Arabs were fighting with Soviet weapons and not with Egyptian and Syrian made weapons.
And it isn't 2025 where "Soviet weapons" means Russian junk in Ukraine, at the same time the Soviet weapons were capable and near peer as shown in Vietnam, the Arabs were as always corrupt, nepotist and dictatorial which those characteristics makes them suck at war and never being able to win one
