I would add "WILL" to your list. They have the will and would not bat an eye at losing a few million of their own people. Our fifth column within would start crying for surrender before we lost even a thousand.
I agree. Between these "spot-on" observations you have made, and all of the proxies they are etting up all around us...should a demo come into the white house...or should it go on too long without a Reagan-like response...we are apt to see some very hard times I fear.
