All this modern black magic -- just convinces this old fart - that you'd have to be nuts to pick a fight with the U.S.A. in these times...

the only problem is our stuff was mainly designed to combat Soviet machines of varying degrees of technology, 1960's stuff like old warships and MiG-21's (50's really there) to some of their latest stuff ...

today our enemy is mainly special teams with relatively low-tech systems dependent upon attrition ... so where we would have had to combat limited Soviet Spetznaz-style infiltrators, now we have madmen with AK-47's, plastic explosives, nails and ball bearings ... they think nothing of murdering countless civilians and even celebrate it ... in fact it's their favorite target because it will produce the highest number of casualties and terror ...

at a minimum I am opposted to replacing our heavy systems like tanks and aircraft carriers ... the M1A2 is sufficient for some period of time though missile technology will advance ... we can't trade $40,000 Hellfires for 6 terrorists at a time though ... for OBL and his top lieutenants, no problem ... for the average foot soldier it will have to be something different ... Israel targets their top guys ... main bomb makers and makes it difficult for them to live ... not a bad solution ... since the enemy's military objectives have religious overtones, it's no longer ground acquisition or ruling seas ... it's about subduing civilizations by cultural oppression and intransigence to anything opposing Islam ... a cultural genocide ...

And therein lies their unavoidable downfall.
You can burn a man's home, and he will rebuild..
You can take a man's land, and he will move on..
You attempt to enslave a man, take his freedom or deny his belief system.....and you have a fight to the death on your hands..

These militant Islamanazis never dreamed that the "weak willed and decadent immoral infidel" would come to HIM and fight him on any terms necessary to kill him.....

I still worry that some stupid Jihad bastards here in the U.S. will start a fire that will consume them and all Muslim supporters here in the States. They have no idea of how quickly and violently a new "civil war" can engulf them..
