bullshit, tell that to arabs, not here

Israel is a small country with increased military numbers for their population and that's all. Greece military expenses if you include the secret budget match the Israel's one and we have 1mil more manpower. Army is obligatory here too. Now look a small comparison between Israel, Germany and UK which are way bigger countries.

ISRAEL

males age 15-49: 1,562,716
note: both sexes are liable for military service (2003 est.)
Military expenditures - dollar figure:
$8.97 billion (FY02)


now look at UK

Military manpower - availability:
males age 15-49: 14,877,666 (2003 est.)

Military expenditures - dollar figure:
$31.7 billion (2002)

GERMANY

Military manpower - availability:
males age 15-49: 20,509,838 (2003 est.)

Military expenditures - dollar figure:
$38.8 billion (2002)


War is not a Rambo episode. Having higher military skillz as you say and if that's in reality valid won't match such differences.
