You’re thinking in terms of old style war.
I an fully aware of drones, who has all tbe military grade drones? I was boots down in Kosovo as well. So I know a thing about those level conflicts too. American’s don’t have the stomach for a Kosovo type warfare. All the we know where the family is is just keyboard commandos , they don’t have the stomach to execute the wife and kids to get at daddy fighting for the commies. Plus a lot of the youth don’t have partners or kids. The millions of illegals left them if they had them back in their home countries how you gonna get at them there?
