When I say armed, I mean with tanks, APC's, helicopters and the like,

having a few hundred kalishnikof's isnt enough to take down an revolutionary guard battalion.

But that's the problem.. Being armed is one thing. Being organized with enough people who think the same way you do, and are willing to fight and die for that cause, is something else entirely.

this is exactly why we cannot ever beat these crazies in their own backyard, on their sreets, in their allys, it is a "mindset" thing......a cultural thing...a historical thing...

we can win only by proxy presence, we must be covert, devious, purposeful, political.....

most Americans have trouble with this concept...
