While I understand that the IDF`s defeat by Hezbollah must have been a blow to Israel`s confidence in the IDF`s ability to defend Israel`s borders, I seriously doubt that 1500 Egyptian security forces pose a serious threat to Israel`s security, but if the experts at the defense ministry and IDF believe that it is, Israelis should be very very scared.
