You are a fucking idiot.
1) That does not take into account QUALITY of soldiers.
2) Israel is hardly afraid of Lebanon, any more then an elephant is of a fly.
3) Israel was not beaten. the problem with fighting an unconventional force is Israel holds itself to a higher standard when fighting. They have no problem sending missiles into a civilian population <i>while firing from a civilian population</i>. But Israel would never do that, and it makes the results lopsided. If Israel were to play by the same rules, there would be no Lebanon, there would be no Middle East.
It would just be Israel, and we would not be having this conversation, or even be debating the best way to deal with the Iranians, Hezbollah, or the Fakestinians.
And if you want to understand the Arab countries in the region, just look at how they deal with their own citizens when they assemble peacefully. That's the mentality Israel has to deal with. So don't confuse restraint and respect for human life with fear.

They were beaten by Lebanon in 2006, and just yesterday Lebanon has threatened to occupy israel's north if Israel initiates a war against Lebanon.
If Israel is 3rd and is scared of little lebanon, then what is the rank of Iran, Russia, UK, and USA, etc?
