Sorry, got to disagree with you. Syria couldn't defeat Israel in 1973 when they had the latest Russian equipment, Israel was fighting on two fronts, and Syria had the element of surprise as they attacked on the holiest day of the Jewish year when the I.D.F. was least prepared. Today, the I.D.F. has more and better equipment while Syria maintains an obsolete force of Cold War Russian armour. The few Mig 29's Syria has wouldn't last an afternoon in Israeli skies. Quite frankly, it would be a cake walk for the Israelis.

CHIMO!
