There's little doubt that Likudniks will keep on their current course and try to achieve their "Greater Israel" goal. They've finally seized and controlled the main power in U.S. The only possible way they do is to exploit the power to the maximum and push their course forward.

Base on the strength they have now, I believe the topping phase may likely last from several years to 20 years from now(which can be regarded as a short period of time from the historical standpoint), depending on how the situation evolves later, IMO. History shows that a major power lacks moral ground and public support would be short lived, no matter how big the power appeared to be.

Perhaps some Likudniks also see risks ahead but they think they can get luckier than any other major power who did the same things and finally met the fate of self-destruction along with their own nation in the history. Well, can anyone escape this rule?
