Not at all. The hatred is too ingrained. It's gonna be a long war, but I don't think it'll be all that hard on Israel. The Arab military might is just not that great. On paper the combined Arab armies are stronger, but wars are not fought on paper... When the Arabs have fought together they often have no coordinated with each other that well. Many of the Arab countries also would not like the idea of a large army from one of their neighbors moving through their country. Actually the Arabs armies often haven't coordinated well with themselves. The senior officers don't like sharing information or decision making with junior officers and non-coms, or even with other senior officers. Small Arab infantry units sometimes have fought pretty well particularly when defending a fixed position but they don't know how to work with the rest of the army well in a fluid situation. This article talks about the problems in greater detail. I think these problems are a greater reason for Israeli military superiority then the IDF's technological advantages. biu.ac.il
