I agree witht you.

Despite all the modern technology available, short of a nuclear bomb, the ultimate weapon is still the grunt on the ground with a rifle, and, as demonstrated in Viet Nam, with the Russians in Afghanistan, and in other places, a determined militia, armed with hand weapons, can make conquest extremely difficult if not impossible.

One of our best allies in the coming Iraqi conflict will be the unwillingness of the mass of Iraqi soldiery to sacrifice their lives for a mad dictator. Give them a cause to fight for and the weapons to use, and they could proove themselves as dangerous a foe as any soldier that ever lived.

No people are cowards (except possibly the French). But any people needs a good, just cause to fight for, and the weapons to do it with, and they will be unconquerable.
