Update: Animated Video of All-out Saudi-Iranian War Breaks Arab World's Internet (Haaretz)
WNU Editor: I posted a link to the above video about a week ago .... to describe it as stupid s actually giving it a compliment. I mean .... Saudi soldiers marching in Tehran being cheered by Iranians .... it is not going to happen.

These videos are so weird.
Do you think we have to thank the military industrial complex for the propagation and prevalence of such inciting videos? They always seem to show the dominance of weapons technology to invoke a feeling of pride (and fear on the other side and likely more weapons orders)... social media is really not good when it comes to war mongering, all sides will just get heated up more and more, order more and more weapons and produce more and more of these stupid videos.. sigh.. 2017.. if it goes on like that we won't get to see 2027 (not even joking)
The graphics are poor, you'd imagine the Saudis could afford better. Also the M1A2 Abrams were actually older Pattons.
