“I’m sure the IDF has contingency plans that include taking out Mecca.”
Mecca and Medina are in Saudi Arabia. Most likely, Israel as an arrangement with Sunni Saudi Arabia to either help them or sit out any Iranian (Shia) attack. Why would Israel, who is being threatened by everybody BUT Saudi Arabia take on Saudi Arabia?
This is the perfect example of the Muslim saying, “The enemy of my enemy is my friend.”
Also, why give Islam the moral equivalent of Pearl Harbor? Attacking a city that has no military value but will give your opponent (in the world’s view) the moral high ground would be insane.
“who is being threatened by everybody BUT Saudi Arabia take on Saudi Arabia?”
Saudi Arabia is the epicenter and source of Jihad. They provide most of the funding. They are the puppet master and bankers behind the Egyptian, Libyan, and Syrian Wahabbist takeovers. THEY funded Osama and Al Qeida. The understanding being that they can do terror around the world, but must behave inside the kingdom.
No, the Saudis are no friends of Israel, or of the USA,,(except for our congressmen and recent presidents who they purchased, or in Obamas case, paid to have educated)
Better the earth should open her mouth.
