The only armed forces even close to being on a par with the Israelis in the Middle East is Egypt. And they are subsidized and supplied heavily by the USA. So is Egypt going to get involved? Every indication from the past 15 years says that Egypt is trying to swing more to the West.
So no, that leaves the Syrians, which are still driving T-55s and T-72s and flying Mig-21s. The Israelis will run over the Syrians.
So who does that leave in the Middle Easy, Lanny?

Don't discount Egypt. Their relationship with the west is NOT heavily supported by the people. If push comes to shove, the Arabs will support the Arabs. And don't discount the Iranians and the Iraqis. Israel could very easily polarize the region. If that happens, the whole place blows up and you're going to see all hell break loose. This is the strategy that the Islamists have been counting on when it comes to Israel. They WANT Israel to lashout and bring all the Arab nations together. If this happens, all bets are off IMO.
