that entire region could attack Israel and they would still loose. They are terrified to death of any technological, organized, disciplined, army with armor, and air and naval support. Iraq stood for 3 weeks and toppled. In 1991 desert storm was more powerful than a hurricane Katrina. Even when two muslim countries fight each other....they both loose. They are the least disciplined, least intelligent, least unified, most disorganized, poorly equipped fighting force in the history of warfare. Israel needs to turn towards Syria, march through and don't stop till they destroy Iran, nukes, E-moms and muslim jihadists .

"Arabic-speaking armies have been generally ineffective in the modern era. Egyptian regular forces did poorly against Yemeni irregulars in the 1960s.1 Syrians could only impose their will in Lebanon during the mid-1970s by the use of overwhelming weaponry and numbers.2 Iraqis showed ineptness against an Iranian military ripped apart by revolutionary turmoil in the 1980s and could not win a three-decades-long war against the Kurds.3 The Arab military performance on both sides of the 1990 Kuwait war was mediocre.4 And the Arabs have done poorly in nearly all the military confrontations with Israel. Why this unimpressive record? There are many factors—economic, ideological, technical—but perhaps the most important has to do with culture and certain societal attributes which inhibit Arabs from producing an effective military force..."

Long article, but very very interesting and timely in the light of current events.

perhaps it should be propositioned another way

ass kickin or ass lickin?

you compare iraq standing for three weeks. if i recollect, in 1967 they had a war wrapped up in 5 days. Today if they elect it could be a 9 minute war, and, using traditional techniques (if they got serious) 5 days again is not out of the question.

i agree , israel is the best capitalized and most organized.
they have done the wrong thing pushing Israel into a corner and they will pay. EVEN the saudis recognize this. AND yes, they should take it to those intermeddlers, syria and iran. They are todays root, worse yet, crying crocodile tears for lebanon.
