They may not have the most power if the rest of Islam decides to strike against them...

"The rest of Islam" is not in position to strike against them. Many Islamic countries are far away.

Egypy has recognized Israel, and while it is possible that they could go back on it they got their land back all ready and they won't benefit much by attacking Israel. Saudi wouldn't want to take the risk and besides they have a weak army. Iran would have to go through Iraq, not likely. Pakistan is even further away. Lebanon is not a significant military concern. Yemen is far away and reasonably weak. Turkey would not get involved and is anyway on the other side of Iraq. Bahrain or the UAE are not going to invade Israel. The Islamic nations in Africa besides Egypt are too far away, to weak, or both.

What reasonably likely coalition do you see striking against Israel? Iraq, and Syria? Israel is more powerful.
