Additional info from Thomas Wictor re: Middle East Wars:
So Iran is trying to force Israel to attack Syria in force, thus rallying the region. It happened in 2006.
(3) All of Lebanon turned on a dime and supported Hezbollah.
Arabs have a saying:
“I against my brother, my brother and I against our cousin, my brother and cousin and I against the world.”
(4) Lebanon was the most westernized of Arab nations.
Didn’t matter.
They slaughtered each other for 15 years, based SOLELY on sectarianism.
(5) When Israel attacked Hezbollah in 2006, Hezbollah’s Lebanese enemies instantly switched sides and supported Hezbollah.
It’s like people pounding their own heads with hammers and saying, “Ha-ha! That fixed YOU, didn’t it?”
(6) So there is not a CHANCE that Israel will attack Syria in force.
GUESS WHAT THE SAUDIS DID IN ANTICIPATION OF THIS?
(7) THIS........
(18) The Saudis spent YEARS preparing for this moment.
350,000 troops take part in regions biggest ever military exercises in Saudi desert -Twenty nations in the Middle East, Africa and Asia, including the UAE, took part in the last day of the so-called ‘Northern Thunder’ manoeuvres, which began 12 days ago.
(19) They trained 350,000 men as strategic commandos.
That is mind boggling.
A force like that could topple the mullahs in one day.
But that’s not the goal.
(20) These men will annihilate the Iranians and Hezbollah and Shi’te Foreign Legion who try to draw Israel in a major conflict.
THAT is what they were trained to do.
And THAT is why Israel cleared minefields from the Golan Heights.
(21) Thousands—maybe TENS of thousands—of strategic commandos went into Syria through Israel.
They’ve also gone into Lebanon.
Are Assad and Nasrallah going to ANNOUNCE this?
No.
(22) “Hoist on your own petard” means “blown up by your own bomb.”
The mullahs have been hoist on their own petard.
They can’t admit to anything that’s happening.
(23) So sit back and watch.
It’s going to be amazing...
(24) ADDENDUM: By the way, WE’RE doing the same thing as the Gulf Cooperation Council.....click link below for more:

OMG.
350K commandos. Seems extremely hopeful for the circumventing of gleeful free-for-all bloodletting.
Dear God in Heaven, we praise you and ask that you take command of events unfolding in the Middle east. In His name we are grateful you hear us. Amen
