"S-2, could you possibly conceive a situation where Israel would be given carte blanche for total war?"
Only a scenario where Israel's survival is at stake by a host of accumulated enemies. Even then I'm unsure.
The question is whether Israel has the independant means to conduct war as they see necessary. I don't believe so. So long as they're reliant upon America for a portion of their defense requirements and to provide political cover, Israel will likely be vulnerable to some level of American leverage.
