Hi frankw1900; Re: "Us military folk are remarkable. Their training and doctrine are superb. Even if they had the same weapons, they would still defeat any Arab army due to the superior training and doctrine." I agree, but the kill ratio would be a hell of a lot closer to unity. Bilow, April 1, 2003 Our military strength is due only to our technology and that technology is useless in offense against enemy civilians. ... That is, while our military is extremely good at engaging and defeating enemy militaries, we have absolutely no ability to engage, defeat or pacify enemy civilian populations. #reply-18784670 frankw1900, in response: We're going to find out when it comes to "civilain combattants" in Iraq. ... Not demonstrated in the case of Iraq. #reply-18786163 Knowing you're an idiot, I'm guessing that you will never admit that the Iraqi war was unwinnable. I'm looking forward to what you use as an explanation for why it is that we are unable to pacify the civilians. Hey, you had a Republican administration in the White House. And Republican control over the Congress. So who are you going to blame it on this time? -- Carl
