Spittle-emitting Iranian President screeches:

Muslim states' armies stand behind the Palestinians in their struggle with the Israeli Defense Force to eradicate the Zionist Entity!!!! (Or words to that the effect.)

Well, to be precise, the armies of the Muslim world stand behind the front lines with Israel, hundreds and hundreds of miles behind the front lines. And "stand" might be not be quite the mot juste . Perhaps, a more descriptive term than "stand" would be "recline," "stretch out," "get comfy," or "snooze in their barracks."

I mean, be honest, if you were some Muslim general, would you want to tangle with the IDF? Getting your butt kicked gets olds really fast. Been there, done that in 1948, 1956, 1967, 1973, and 1982. And then the Soviets collapsed so all thier old Red Army equipment is rusting. Israeli regional military supremacy is only getting more overwhelming.
