The only problem is the Brits are VERY experienced counter-insurgency warfare specialists. Yes, they would take a lot of casualties during the guerilla war, but they would eventually come out on top. Even if the US didn;t become an active combatant we would still support the brits with weapons and munitions.

If war does break out the united states should not interfere. But because a nation needs help we will. America will always do its best to help it allies. the war is suicide. Brits will have us to back it up or will they? We are also allies of Isreal. WE wont know anything until it happens. Lets pray that it doesn't. I don't need to see anymore of our boys coming home in boxes.

The US would HAVE to take a side because of NATO

as i said, NATO is a defence treaty that refers to Europ, not the middle east.

the USA would ONLY join the "good guys" to fight for the better of the world.

Nato includes The US and canada so yes you are right if the UK attacked then they wouldint act but if isreal attacked the US would HAVE to take the british side along side the french the canadians the australians etc...in other words total destruction of the isrealy army...

Either way it is of minor consequence. Ok, Israel and the UK going blow for blow would criple both countries. In the end they both would loose anyway. War is a terrible thing.

indeed

Yes war IS horrible, but running scanrios never hurts....

Agree, as long as we can keep it civilized, and the scenarios are not too far out..

Scenario training is a large part of any officer training/education too.
