It's also another Road of Death like what occurred in Kuwait at the end of the Gulf War. IDAF or USAAF or USN air attacks would decimate such an attack on an open highway. It would need air cover and the only possibilities would be the Saudis or Syria. But Syria's Air Force would most likely be shredded even worse than they were over the Bekaa Valley twenty years ago. And Saudi air cover would lead to open war with the US and Israel. The House of Saud would not survive. So the House of Saud would do what it does best -- stay out of real fighting.

Nice shot

This is the same debka that had Chinese troops intervening in A'stan to save the taliban.

[Dog Gone]

Look out. According to tallhappy, those who criticize Debka are idiots.

I know you're going to fret about that fact all night. ;-)

DEBKA is always fun to read, but that's about it.

[Husker24]

Yes they would, theyve asked for Isreali air cover before.

"Now, would crack refer to what they're smoking or that portion of their anatomy most commonly seen by their enemies?"

"There really should be an weekly award given to notible Freepers for Best Posts of the Week. I nominate yours."

I'll second that.

They must mean, 'butt-crack'.

Considering how Iraqs military was seriously reduced during the Gulf war, I think Sodom is leaving the hen house open for a flogging :)

I think its great that all these countrys are massing their troops up on the borders of Israel, It sure makes an easier target if you can hit them all at once :)

"Are these the same divisions DEBKA said had already crossed the Jordanian border enroute to Israel a few months back?"

Oh, no. Those earlier divisions secretly "infiltrated" across the unoccupied desert, remember? Even now they are "arrayed" on the River Jordan, facing Israel, and are waiting to "link up" with these new divisions.

And nobody has any idea they are there. Except DEBKA.
