World War 3 Could Start This Month: 350,000 Soldiers In Saudi Arabia Stand Ready To Invade Syria<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

\"War<\/a>350,000 soldiers, 20,000 tanks, 2,450 warplanes and 460 military helicopters are massing in northern Saudi Arabia for a military exercise that is being called \u201cNorthern Thunder\u201d.\u00a0 According to\u00a0the official announcement<\/a>, forces are being contributed by Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Jordan, Bahrain, Sudan, Kuwait, Morocco, Pakistan, Tunisia, Oman, Qatar, Malaysia and several other nations.\u00a0 This exercise will reportedly last\u00a0for 18 days<\/a>, and during that time the airspace over northern Saudi Arabia will be closed to air traffic.\u00a0 This will be the largest military exercise in the history of the region, and it comes amid rumors that Saudi Arabia and Turkey are preparing for a massive ground invasion of Syria.<\/p>\n

If you were going to gather forces for an invasion, this is precisely how you would do it.\u00a0 Governments never come out and publicly admit that forces are moving into position for an invasion ahead of time, so \u201cmilitary exercises\u201d are a common excuse that gets used for this sort of thing.<\/p>\n

If these exercises are actually being used as an excuse to mass forces near the northern Saudi border, then we should expect an invasion to begin within the next couple of weeks.\u00a0 If it happens, we should expect to see the Saudi coalition storm through western Iraq and into Syria from the south, and it is likely that Turkey will come in from the north.<\/p>\n

The goal would be to take out the Assad regime before Russia, Iran and Hezbollah could react.\u00a0 For the past couple of years, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and their allies\u00a0have been funding the Sunni insurgency in Syria<\/a>, and they were counting on those insurgents to be able to take down the Assad regime by themselves.<\/p>\n
