<<In 1965, the Muslim world was united in a New Caliphate that was far stronger, militarily and economically, than
the U.S. >>>
Happened one time you know, in 1967.
Six Nations got together- Egypt,Jordan, Syria, Iraq,Algeria, and Kuwait, backed by Russia and including 465.000 troops. 2880 tanks and 810 Aircraft and attacked a certain lessor power because their very existence was considered a threat.

>> In the first 2 hours the Israelis destroyed 300 enemy aircraft with the loss of 12 pilots. At the end of the first day the Air war was over>> .
