Apparently, the Syrians possess a new type of laser radar that will wreak havoc on his country's air force. After disabling the Israeli air power, the Syrians plan to conduct a tank invasion through the Golan Heights.
Bottom line is war is imminent in the Middle East.
An American F-117 is blown out of the Kuwaiti sky by a powerful new laser weapon. The fear in DC is that the Syrians have upped the ante in the Middle East with a weapon that has the potential of devastating the Israeli air force and subsequently lead to instability and perhaps global conflict. He will lead a squad using the last hope for limiting the fight to a regional conflict, a laser guided missile system, that has never been tried in combat.

The story line is built around laser technology that seems so real, it will leave readers fearing its plausibility and demanding the President begin using the budget surplus to develop new and smart counter-weapons.
