A former infantryman shared details of "Operation Early Victor," a 2002 war game in Jordan that laid the groundwork for the invasion of Iraq.

Eager Lion 2013, Syrian Proxy War and John McCain
The "Eager Lion 2013" military exercise in Jordan involves 15,000 soldiers from 18 countries, which observers believe is a preparation for a real-world intervention in Syria.

Speculation suggests that a "staged" chemical attack could be used as a catalyst for further military action in the region.
