Ask the Russians what they think of our chances. They weren't exactly fielding boy scouts during the ten years they had their asses handed to them. There are no good answers here. Nukes are...nukes, which I've been programmed to immediately consider as unthinkable. Ground war in Asia is one of two things you don't get involved in, as anyone who saw Princess Bride could tell. I can't recall what the other thing is. I'd almost rather glass Kabhul than throw away any NATO lives in those mountains.

I'd almost rather glass Kabhul than throw away any NATO lives in those mountains. Strike that. I don't give a crap about "NATO" lives. NATO doesn't give a crap about us, unless we're needed to provide most of the hardware and personnel for a mission that they approve of.
