Any link to support your assertion that the Isrealites were a few buddies against hundreds of Ammonites?

Just as long as we're talking about intellectual dishonesty...

From what I can tell the Bible describes the Ammonites as a tribe in the land of Ammon (which apparently is somewhere near the Dead Sea). I can't find any mention of their troop strength or weaponry that was available to them.

If it is a case of the Israelites with bows and arrows vs the Ammonites with rocks, then yes, I think it would be entirely possible. Not even that, in more recent history the Continental Army was able to defeat a much larger, more powerful and better equipped army through better tactics and use of the land. Is that not possible as well? Come to think of it, that might be a better example than Gulf War I.

Again, welcome to the fold.
