Not necessarily true. The Afghans managed to outlast and fight Queen Victoria’s finest a century or so ago. They gave the Soviets a bloody nose and now they are giving us a hard time. Ever hear of asymmetrical warfare?
Of course I’ve heard of assymetric warfare, that’s exactly what I was talking about in my post. The person I was replying to was implying that our high-tech planes, bombs, and drones would make any resistance ineffective, which is just silly, considering that a bunch of stone age arabs were able to counter those same weapons for years in very recent history.
