Nope, this is going to be guerrila warfare...and it was obvious that this was the Iraqi strategy from the beginning. "How to defeat a western occupier 101". Lessons from "Palestine", India, Vietnam.

Flood the country with forces, pacify the population, be oppressive where you have to be, have a big carrot where needed. Make winners and losers. And don't arrest anyone. Kill who you need to, quickly and with no remorse or hand-wringing. Reward everyone you don't need to kill.

Even that may not work...but it's the best chance.

Words of wisdom; but are there ears to hear them?

One possible scenario. Let's say, 10 Years from now, Hillary proclaims herself Queen Hillary and declares a permanent 'State of Emergency' under which all consitutional protections are lifted.

6 years later, taking advantage of our military's inability to defend the country, the Chinese Red Army comes to our rescue. They occupy Wash., D.C., New York, Chicago, L.A. and begin patrolling the country. They also promise that, soon, our Constitution will be re-instated and their army will be replaced with U.N. troops that are to maintain the peace and ensure that freedom and legality are restored. They also demand that personal firearms be surrendered within 2 weeks or the violators and their families will be punished.

Question: what is likely to happen? Are we going to be super-grateful because Hillary I was finally dethroned, will we not mind the Chinese or U.N. troops presence in our country? Are we going to attack them if they don't leave in a hurry?
