many countries have their people believe their own special forces are all that. Supposedly Norway has a very small but incredibly good special forces unit. im no expert though

arent the US navy seals supposed to be real great too

The question is legitimate though. I think some people look at special forces units as super soldiers and rambo types. Many are trained to do specific tasks that range from infiltration, to sabatoge, to hostage recovery etc etc.

The US has been using them to train combatants in Iraq and Afghanistan prio to the commencement of conflicts. Then to coordinate with US forces. These guys were dressing as natives and living behind enemy lines.

Although in any contest I'd imagine Israel would have to be towards the top, if not the top, of the list. Those guys are constantly being deployed
