"This was true before the Islamic revolution and it remains true today." The View From Israel While the moderate Arab world breathed a collective sigh of relief when Iran an- nounced its acceptance of the ceasefire, news of the impen- ding halt to hostilities has provoked deep concern in Jerusalem. gb Israeli military planners, the Gulf War — so long as it kept both sides pinned down in a draining, bloody conflict and failed to produce a decisive victor — was a gift from heaven. It deflected the hostility of Islamic fundamentalist Iran, which regards the "Zionist entity" as a creature of the satanic United States and as a usurper of Moslem rights. More important, perhaps, it insured that Iraq — which has participated in every previous conflict against Israel — could be safely counted out of any Arab war coalition. In addition, it created deep divisions within the Arab world, pitting the pro-Iranian radical states (notably Syria and Libya) against the pro- Iraqi moderates (notably Jor- dan, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia). "If we had calculated it all on a computer, we could not have devised a more attrac- tive scenario," said one senior Israeli official. Now that the war appears to be over, however, all the old calculations are suddenly ob- solete. Those lazy, hazy, crazy days of intra-Arab discord are past, and dark new clouds are beginning to gather in the minds of Israeli military planners. There is a growing fear that Israel may be forced to pay dearly for the past eight years of relative freedom from ex- ternal threat. Both Iran and Iraq have gained invaluable military experience and expertise us- ing the most advanced con- ventional weapons available (in the case of Iraq, chemical warheads, too). Moreover, both sides are vastly more powerful than they were before hostilities began. Iraq, for example, started the war with 12 divi- sions; it now has 50 (which translates into 1 million men under arms). It also has an ar- mory that includes 5,000 tanks, 650 fighter planes, long-range missiles and home-made, battle- proven chemical warheads. In addition, the Iraqi Air Force has proved that it is capable of using its sophis- ticated jet fighters to lethal effect, conducting long-range bombing attacks against oil installations deep inside Iranian territory. Missions over such dis- tances, according to Israeli analysts, would give Iraqi pilots the technical ability to reach all of Israel's major cities. The view among several Israeli analysts is that Iraq, despite the massive aid — both moral and material — it received from moderate Jor- dan, Egypt and Saudi Arabia during its hour of greatest need, will eventually return to its natural place among the radical states of the Arab world. They also believe that the Iranian leaders, forced to "There was a real danger that resentment over the war might have eventually undermined the Iranian regime. justify the sudden aband- onment of their hideously ex- pensive war, will choose to direct the attention of their bewildered people towards an evil that is even greater than the Iraqi regime of President Saddam Hussein: the Zionist occupation of Jerusalem. "In the Iranian ideology, Israel is the enemy of Islam in particular and humanity in general," noted one Middle East observer. "Once Iran is released from the burden of its war with Iraq, it may very well concentrate its efforts against Israel?' In the immediate future, the two former protagonists will need time to recover from the sheer exhaustion of their marathon war; they will need time to repair the economic devastation and heal the social dislocation. In the medium and long term, however, Israeli analysts believe that the advanced weaponry and bat- tle experience of the two sides are likely to pose a serious threat in any future Arab war coalition. "When the tensions are reduced, Iraq could comfor- tably contribute an expedi- tionary force of three or four divisions to join in a war against Israel," said one senior Israeli source in Jerusalem. "If I were Israel's minister of defense, I would be deeply concerned:"
