James,

I'm afraid you don't quite understand the power of the U.S. military.

I don't blame you....I don't quite understand it either....but I have friends in Washington who do....and they quite assure me that today is one time when one can not look to history to teach us. One of our helicopters...just one....can destroy a whole battalion...or so I've been told. This is not the Germans invading in the 1940's....this is a whole new ballgame.

Guerilla fighting works at times, but only if supplies can be brought to the guerillas. Viet Nam had those supplies sent through the Ho Chi Minh Trail, (at least I think that was the trail), but tell me, what trail is going to supply the Serbians if they try to fight guerilla style? I'll tell you. There is none.

Juanita

P.S. Don't y'all DARE try and give us Quebec! We don't want it! <g>
