The Saudis are the powerhouse of the Arab league. If there were to be a war, they'd be involved. Or, to put it another way, there would be no war without there involvement.

They aren't the only Arab army that vastly outnumbers the Israelis either. I just can't see them having a realistic chance. Read up about it. Look at the troop numbers and kit for the many countries Israel would be up against.
Tru but then again, troop numbers aren't everything these days.
No, but greater troop numbers, superior kit and having allies surrounding your adversary are all very big plus points.
The only thing the Arab states have over Israel is numbers. That's it. Israel has superior equipment, training, and tactics. They've been outnumbered every time they've gone to war with the Arab states...and kicked their asses every time. Force on force, the Arab states wouldn't stand a chance.

But the cost would be immense...to both sides.
