Egypt is not the ragtag force they were in the 60’s and 70’s. They have 300 F-16’s and a 1000 M1A1 Abrams tanks. Even a great military like the IDF would have serious problems if the Arabs attacked her in force. Especially a radical Islamic Army. If the Israelis think the end is near, mushrooms will be sprouting all over the Middle East. The Saudis, Jordanians and Syrians know full well the consequences of such an attack. The Israelis will wipe out the Arabs. Plain and simple. I don't blame them one bit. “Never again!”

When you are paying $10 for gas say that. Israel had better kowtow to our interests first.

The Sinai is about tactically the worst place on the face of the Earth that an armored force can travel across to make an attack against a dug-in defender.

If I were an Egyptian tank commander and they told me to saddle up and cross the Sinai to attack Israel, I'd tell them "Yes sir! Just give me a minute to run back to the barracks to get my Jew-killing knife!".

Ten hours later I'd be at my new job driving a taxi cab in Amsterdam under my new fake Turkish identity, selling bootleg DVDs out of the trunk.

Because, you know, FTS.
