It'd be over before you reached full mast, man.  Damascus, Oregon would be more competitive.

Although the thought of Israeli armor driving on Damascus would give me the boner of boners.

Your mother has a boner?  That doesn't sound quite right..
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Hm, why was there never an IDF add on for Combat Mission Shock Force?

The developers clearly thought that the Netherlands and Syria were much more likely to go to war.

Syria couldn't declare a War on Drugs if it wanted to.  I doubt they're in the condition to do anything about TEH ZIONISS ENTIDY

Assad, no.
His Lebanese attack dog may be a different story.

Isn't that how it work though?  Israel bombs Syria, Hezbollah launches some rockets into some settlements, situation normal?
