    yeah nobody calls to "step in and end" anything for a sovereign country. Good luck trying to "step in" to China, Russia etc. Same for Israel. If you want to dissolve the military then you are welcome to go over there and give it a try.

      Don't need to do much else than step back and wait. The israeli military is entirely dependent on western aid.
