I would bet that will be with in a year. It seems to me that the nut knows that instead of a country he has a billion member military force that he is itching to use and is just looking for an excuse.
It is only a few million actually, and personally I believe the loyalty to that little queer leader would be short lived. Remember, the military is fairly well fed, but their families are starving. They aren't happy. They do what they do for the most part because they are forced, or because they want to feed their family.
