Israel- surrounded on all sides

Those who would say that Israel is surrounded on all sides by its enemies were paranoid.
Peace treaties were signed with Egypt and Jordan.
A new era was at hand, a new middle east.
Those that said that real danger lurked everywhere were ridiculed.
Lets look at the situation right now.
On Israels southern flank there is the Hamas which has been at war with Israel off and on since it took over the Gaza strip.
There had just been a major conflict that has may start again at any time.
In the north there is the Hizbullah that Israel has also been at war intermittingly and another seems likely very soon.
In fact the leader of that organization has said in the last few days that war was imminent and that his organization would even capture parts of the Galilee.
Now to the east is Jordan. That seems safe, right?
Very safe as long as it is not taken over.
The new Islamic Republic has its sites on Jordan.
and Then you know who.
To the west things do not change.
It is the sea where the paranoids fear getting thrown into.
Did I say we are surrounded on all sides?.
The new old Middle East.
