If in 1990, instead of invading Kuwait, Saddam had launched a surprise attack on Israel with his full army of 1,000,000 soldiers and 5,000 tanks, along with Mig-29 and Mirage planes, who would have won? Assume full Jordanian and PLO co-operation with Saddam, including use of territory and airspace, and the attack comes from the Jordanian border.

You'd also have to assume US co-operation with Israel.

Victor - Israel.

All three get stomped.

Seriously, how is this a question? Saddam couldn't take on Iran with chemical weapons without getting his face punched in much less Israel trying to organize his forces into a surprise attack across Jordan praying the Israelis just happen to not notice all the iraqis lining up on their border before the trigger gets pulled on this shitbasket.

Considering they were already freaked out about Saddam in '90 anyway.

the US hadn't directly intervened in any of the past Arab-Israeli wars, why would they in this one?

And for the purposes of the argument assume no US intervention because that makes the question moot and we all know what the outcome that would be.

Baghdad gets nuked. Iraqi army gets nuked. USA joins the fight. GG no re.

His army in 1990 was completely different to his army in 1980 though, it was 10x as large and was much better trained and experienced and had better weaponry. Its incomparable. That's how they managed to completely push the Iranians from Faw peninsula in a matter of hours, and take Kuwait in a few hours despite Kuwait having had modern British and American weaponry.

They have intervened in none, but co-operated in almost all. You could debate the 6 day war.

Post Suez obviously.
