Since 1985, Iran and Israel are devoted in conflicts that have affected and brought confrontations between the Iranian and Israeli governments. This is visible after the recent Iran attack on Tel Aviv where 300 drones were fired in Tel Aviv.
This was a retaliation from Iran since Israel attacked the Iran on its embassy compound in Damascus. And on 15th April 2024, Iran launched a direct military attack in response to Israel’s strike on the Iranian embassy though the Israel Military says Iran fired more than 100 bombs.
It should be remembered that, despite the two countries being at loggerheads, at some point, Israel provided support to Iran during the Iran-Iraq war from 1980 to 1988. But the bitter relationship between these two countries started not long ago when Israel started try to stop Iranian nuclear programs and opening wars on Arab countries especially.
These are some of the differences that make them inferior and superior to each other about their weapon might and the population at large. After this comparison, you will find out who is who, and who is better than the other in war.
Iran has one of West Asia’s largest militaries and Israel is one of the strongest in Europe and her military superiority is evidenced by having the only Iron Dome in the world that intercepts any military attack from space.
Diverting to the active duty personnel, Iran has 580.000 yet Israel has 170,000 though Israel has more advanced technology compared to the Iran. Speaking about the population between the two, Iran has a large population with 88.6 million compared to Israel with 9.56 million. This gives Iran an upper hand in war since a supply of manpower is available making Iran superior in war.
A quick comparison is here; Iran is better than Israel in Man power with 41.3m being fit for service than Israel’s 3.5m only. Israel is better in Air power, Iran is better in Naval power, land power, Natural resources, Financial power, and logistics and Israel is powerful in geographical location.
Iran has the largest nuclear facility in the world and it is respected for that, that is why many super powers like the US are careful on engaging it in any conflict.
In a nutshell, all factors kept constant, the Middles East country has a better hand in military supremacy and it can defeat Benjamin’s side if they engage in a serious war. Like it is happening now, tensions are rising daily and Iran has already informed Tel Aviv that it is ready for any retaliation if it is there.

On the same hand, UK, US, France and all allies of Israel have already asked Benjamin Netanyahu not to retaliate as it can cause a global conflict.
