Yeah, whatever. You just want them easy to annihilate. If all the baddies wore uniforms and followed military regulations and otherwise stood around with their thumbs up their butts, where would the challenge be? A UAV and a few GBUs later, there would be nothing left but hair, teeth, eyeballs, and armpits. That's pretty satisfying, sure, but it's hardly any fun.ATG wrote:
If a peoples, such as the Muslims, have a serious grievance, they would further their cause better by forming an alliance, capitalizing on their domination of the worlds oil reserves, and fielding standing armies led by elected governments.
Instead...we have dirka dirka jihad mutha fukers to everyone including and usually their own fellow Muslims.
Just ask the Brits circa 1776; I'm sure they'd say guerrilla warfare is Pretty Damn Fun.
You wanna know what we should have done?
We shoulda brought all of our tanks and helicopters and shit in, and then we should have secured a sizable portion of the desert and built a 20' tall, 5' thick goddamned wall around it, with minigun sentries every so often. Next, we shoulda' put every mobile home manufacturer in the US to work on building a few dozen thousand modular structures, and loaded 'em up on fleet of C5s, and transported them to this bit of desert. Next, we shoulda dragged a huge pipe for fresh water that would be produced by a nuclear desalination plant at the ocean. Next, we shoulda' installed a few hundred miles of sewer pipe, and hooked 'em up to the modular homes.
And then we shoulda' airlifted an entire goddamned Super Wal-Mart and dropped the mofo right in the center of our new little desert city, and then put out an open invitation for everyone to come in, of course notifying them that the shit is going to hit the fan Real Soon Now. Of course, they'd be subject to screening and anal probes and all kinds of fun stuff, but anyone inside gets credits for Wal-Mart purchases, and anyone handing in an AK or an RPG gets bonus credits.
Compared to our current strategy, It woulda' been a lot cheaper (in oh so many ways) to build a Brand Spanking New new multi billion dollar city for every old city, then had nightly bomb raids to bomb the shit out of the old cities till all the baddies died of sleep deprivation.
