pr00ne,
Young Mohammed (Pakistani tribe) has just been given an F-16 - what he does with it in the future might not be to our liking and it may yet carry a tactical nuke.
Young Mohammed (Saudi tribe) is already operational on F-15C and S and we will try to get his brother checked out on Typhoon.
Goodness only knows how Young Mohammed (Iranian) is getting on - there has not been a lot of int from there since the Russians and Chinese started supplying all their aircraft. Rumour has it that his fighter will be nuke-capable any day now.
As for Mohammed's brothers in Syria, doubt if they would join us in the next coalition - more likely they will oppose us.
Yes, it is a popular theory at the moment that just because the Iraqis offered no effective air force against the coalition in both Gulf conflicts, the next war will be the same.
Very dangerous school of thought.
If oil reaches $100 a barrel, the ME might once again be the scene of major conflict.
