I guess that revenge could work, though of course it raises the political heat in the region.
Would it not be in Israel's interests, though to have Iraq as a very weak secular dictatorship (as it apparently was prior to the war,) rather than a developing state, not under any sanctions regime, that has the potential to go in a very secular and hostile direction?
Rationally, I might go with the status quo option if I was in charge in Israel. I guess that not all decisions are made on a rational basis though.
