Quote by: Gods_Mercenary  Hezbollah and syria are meaningless and puny if viewed in world war terms. States like Egypt and Saudi arabia will never, in my opinion, openly defy the west unless something shanges drastically. You need a reason for Russia and China to side with an obviously losing side, hell, I doubt Iran would ever go that far. |
Meaningless and Puny?? Hizbollah has managed to defeat Israel twice, first in 1982 amidst Israel's occupation of the southern lands of Lebanon, and secondly the war that broke out in 2006, they might seem like a couple of frail nations to you, but I believe they have so much more instore. States like Egypt and Saudi Arabia could never flout the west simply because they are allies with USA. As for China and Russia, there have always been apprehensive relationship between the latter and USA, that itself is adequate to stem a war. Iran would not go as far as starting a war, but Bush surly would.
