Iran is not funding any Sunni jihadists. That would be our good friends the Saud thugopoly.

The era when Israel was threatened by conventional military forces ended 50 years ago. Besides the simple fact that there is no military force that is an existential threat to Israel, Israel has a nuclear capability that would be used were such a threat to somehow present itself.
