Saudi Arabia said 350,000 forces from 25 nations will partake in an exercise called "North Thunder", according to Saudi media.

Some 2,540 warplanes, 20,000 tanks and 460 helicopters will also participate in the exercise, dubbed “North Thunder.”

Hmmm....KSA wants the Shiite gov't of Syria overthrown.

BUT, Russia and Iran have backed Bashar al-Assad and have turned the tide against the rebels. Bashar and company look poised to crush the rebellion.

Is North Thunder JUST a military exercise????
Just a coincidence of timing and location???

350 000 Sunni troops have gathered...what's next???

There are already 15 nations fighting in Syria...will another 25 nations be added???

Who knows. If every Alex Jones, Steve Quayle, etc. theory was right about our military practices we'd be in FEMA camps already while the Illuminati rolled out it's ten state carve-up of the world.

I'm coming to the conclusion that massive military practices are maybe-so-maybe-not. They might be trying to alert the region that they're mobilizing to defend themselves, preemptively if needed, and it could be a psychological message to damage moral in Syria. The thing I'd wonder about, before even considering that this will amount to any activity in Syria, Yemen, etc.. is whether there's historical precedent for what they're doing and whether they have acted in unison on anything before. If yes then there's a possibility they could mobilize to do something, if no then the odds of it going places seem like they'd be significantly slimmer.

I wonder if the real target is Israel, just as a popularity boost.

The Arabs can't even beat the Houthis who have threatened to push into Saudi territory since the beginning of their war, they'd get blown out in Syria. The Saudis have a bunch of inbred princes playing army, they would show their true colors as cowards like the Iraqi Army when faced with non-soft target. The Turks want Syria for themselves, they're more militarily competent and a member of NATO but they know that if they sign up for an aggressive war aimed at toppling the Assad that the west has no appetite for war with Russia and Iran so they'd be on their own.

If this war comes to pass then the US needs to not be involved, Russia/Iran/Assad are much better strategic allies than the Turks and Arabs.
