No one said it was. Why isn't ISIS carrying out very many attacks at all - whether civilian kidnappings, bombings or other general terrorist activity - on Israel. You seem to be unable to draw any distinction between any act of aggression whatsoever, and all out invasion.

I say that. Your very article says the "most brazen" acts of terror are on Egypt and also says this
quote:

The Islamic State's affiliate in Egypt, 'Sinai Province', confirmed it had fired three Grad rockets at Israel, adding that it was in retaliation for Israel supporting Egypt's armed forces on Wednesday when the jihadis attacked army checkpoints in northern Sinai.
Retaliation?

Wouldn't they be opposed to Israel ideologically, like they are America, and carrying out acts of terror against them?

I understand clearly. Isis isn't and won't invade Israel because Israel's military is vastly supperrior.

You are the cool sarcastic guy that said, "they'll just behead Americans because we don't have shite".

Because Israel doesn't screw around, as the rest of the Arab countries found out in the 6 day war.

Would you not call launching rockets at civilians in a country "acts of terror"? If rockets started flying into America from Mexico and Canada, I bet you'd call it an "act of terror".

Also, step 1 for ISIS is to surround Israel before launching an all out assault. Do you even Art of War, brah?

I would not call three bombs after a massive invasion of a neighboring area, claimed only in retaliation, a campaign of terror.

A campaign of terror is what they are doing to Egypt, Syria, and American civilians.

OP asks why Isis doesn't invade Israel.

I say, (paraphrasing) "because of the Israeli military.

You say, "THATS WHY THEY ONLY BEHEAD AMERICANS. WE DONT HAVE shite".

This is weird to say, but PJ nailed it with this post.

Mizzou is either a 13 year old in real life or autistic

So I guess you wouldn't call 3 planes crashing into buildings in retaliation for supposed wrongs to Muslims a campaign of terror either, right?

No it doesn't. It says "attacks" and "attempted attacks". That's what this is about. That's what I've been trying to tell you the whole time. Why don't you get that?

I don't follow. Bibi says hypothetically Iran would be a bigger threat than ISIS. How does that shape Israel and ISIS's policies toward one another right now? Explain that.
