Sperk: If my suggestion above was correct (that the memo Clark described was not THE Master Plan, but only one of multiple strategic scenarios that were being considered), then there's not the slightest bit of "explosive revelation" in the linked video.

It's particularly non-explosive given the countries listed; I mean, if Saudi Arabia or Egypt or Jordan had been on the list, THAT would have been a bit more of a shock to me.

Mind you, I assume that somewhere in the Pentagon, there are also documents describing hypothetical invasions of those three countries, too -- but for various reasons, I would expect these to be VERY hypothetical -- much more so than invasions of Iraq, Iran, or Syria, for example. (Saudi Arabia is where Mecca and Medina are located, which makes an invasion of S.A. very high-risk; while there's been a long-term policy of giving Egypt and Jordan tons of aid money in hopes of keeping them relatively friendly towards the U.S. and Israel.)

In contrast, it doesn't surprise me a bit that over the decades, the U.S. Dept. of Defense would've considered and paper-wargamed dozens of different options for invading countries like Iraq, Iran, and Syria, with roots that go back at least to the 1970s.
