To achieve totalitarian control requires imperial reach. Small countries can't marshall the resources to accomplish a truly totalitarian lockdown of the population.
Israel remains small so that it cannot be tempted into totalitarian conceits. It must remain small so that it can serve as a laboratory for new political/economic ideologies.
Israel is designed to be a nation but not an empire, and there's something important there that Israel's leaders, especially her spiritual leaders, need explicitly to appreciate about her.
