Things can always get worse....a lot worse.
A full war between Israel and Hezbollah and other Iranian proxies would mean that the US will have to drag their feet to the Middle East to avoid the collapse of Israel.

Guess we will find out soon. The US wouldn’t be announcing the deployment of a submarine if Iran really did back down a couple days ago.
I don’t see why the Iranians or Hezbollah would care if the attacks happened during the Olympics. Far more likely it was related to the meeting of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation a few days ago. Where Iran met with the other Islamic states to publish a statement that sides with Iran on the matter.

It is true, however Palestine has no real importance to the world economy and technology and has been struggling for decades. While Israel is/was world class technology powerhouse and world leading in many areas (e.g water conservation, agriculture, etc). After this war, not many countries would want to cooperate with Israel for a very long time. I doubt China would do that for long time ... forget about Russia and Arab and other Islamic countries (e.g Malaysia, Indonesia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, etc)
High population growth rate is exactly why Israel is in current predicament, they don't have enough land to fit their population and have to resort to territory expansion
You really think the Apartheid plans on leaving Gaza alone for 15-20 years? Gaza is in a perpetual rebuilding mode due to constant Israeli-settler war crimes. This time, the Apartheid is interested in a total ethnic cleansing, i.e. Gaza annexed into the apartheid.
Thailand has become the new exodus destination for the fleeing war criminals.
Israel will never recover to pre Oct-7 level, and things can still go worst for them, much much worst if their infrastructure gets targeted by Hezbollah and Iran. No sane investor will ever feel safe to invest in Israel.
Sure Palestinian infrastructure is destroyed if it makes you feel better. But the people are still there, population down a few %s from IDF's best effort but they're still there and has plenty of hate and funded and armed by external allies to keep the fight going on for decades. Have fun with that
Israel will never accept all the Arabs in Palestine as regular citizens because then the Arabs would have a voting majority. That is why they tolerated these Arab 'reservations'. But of course their goal is to drive the Arabs out of there and reduce their numbers.
Low Jewish birthrates and very high Israeli-Arab rates adds to the problem. Despite all the sterilization programs, the Arab birthrate continued to dominate. But recently, the birthrate among those psycho Orthodox nutters began to skyrocket as well, with estimates showing they will be a majority (among Jews) in less then a couple decades.. which means an increase in the national Apartheid psychopathy.
Money should never be a problem for Israel, it will always have millions of wealthy and appropriately bloodthirsty backers abroad.
If there is ever a logistical breakdown, or major attacks on energy infrastructure, things can get dicey though.
Don't see the (presumed) coming Iranian attack doing any major damage here, it will likely focus purely military targets.
A full scale war against Hezbollah could perhaps get serious consequences? If they have potent enough drones and missiles to enforce a blockade on Israel in the Mediterranean - being constrained to land corridors would cripple Israel significantly.
