Re your rebuttal to my somewhat skeptical asessment;
Good golly; I sure hope and pray that YOU are RIGHT!
George, I honestly believe that I am. No one, and I do mean NO ONE can beat the American patriot in any fight. The only times America has "lost" in war, is when our military has been hamstrung by our politicians.
The American military is simply the point of the spear. If the very survival of our nation were at risk, you'd see the inner Minuteman come out in most Americans, just as it did after Pearl Harbor and 9/11.
Our people are our greatest strength, and they are the most formidable force on the planet.
