Cletus,
International law prohibits acquiring territory by war. The US and Israel are isolated on this issue and even the US feels nervous about Israel’s lack of respect for the international consensus and the continuation of settlements in West bank.
Another war is very unlikely to happen because the US is terribly stuck in Iraq and cannot afford opening new fronts right now. Israel by herself cannot win the next war as the Lebanon war of 2006 proved. In fact there will be no need for a direct involvement of Iran or Syria; Hamas and Hizbullah are capable of making things really bad for Israel.
