"as long as when the shooting starts we had more than our enemey does, because it will all be over in hours."
Are you basing your argument that just because we beat those camel humpers in a few days all other enemies will be as easy to defeat? Do you think a Chinese army of 10 or 15 years in the future will be so easy to beat?
Have you read the reports on our current army stockpiles of supplies? They are depleated. They are robbing bombed out humvees in Iraq for spare parts.
First of all, I seriously doubt there will ever be a total war again, unless we first have another dark ages that brings the state of war back to non-mechanized. If we did have such a thing, do you think we would allow China to invade the continental US without resorting to nukes? How long does it take to get an ICBM to Beijing? That's how long the war will last.
I'm not saying we would win or lose, or alive or dead, just that it would be over that quick.
They are robbing bombed out humvees in Iraq for spare parts.
Yeah. And we robbed F-4s at Luke AFB for parts in the 70's. The military never has all it wants. What's your point?
