  1. are watching the wrong SF. How should a third world army, like NK, run over a first world army like SK, without using nukes?

    Depends on the terrain and other factors; there's a reason, for example, that the US Air Force, with all it's missiles, fighters and bombers, isn't much use against, say, urban crime.

    A wave of a hundred thousand infiltrators, perhaps hopped-up on performance-enhancing drugs and armed with outdated small arms, cheap Chinese nightvision and explosive charges... could do far more than merely bring the South to its knees.

  2. Happened all too fast.

    The most astute observation here.

  3. and then violate it by bringing home a convicted terrorist and treating them as a hero

    It likely had nothing to do with that and everything to do with threatening the bypassing and destabilization of the dollar - and the euro - by selling oil for gold.

  4. Can anyone spot the foreign shill?

    This aspie buffoon has found a way to compare apples to oranges by relying on a precise, discrete unit called a "war year." Such "conviction" - must be comforting.

    Alright, I'll say it because everyone already senses it anyhow... this rocket's special distinction is that it uses the blood, sweat and tears of warehouse workers for fuel and the hopes and dreams of mom n' pop store owners for an oxidiser.

    We will make this world a better place.

    We know your plan: turn the whole world into Arkansas... where the women have more children than teeth and there's a Walmart on every corner.

    (Ironically, even Arkansas doesn't seem to want this... but having never been to Arkansas, a lot of people on the coasts don't know any better.)

    As the state - theoretically - is a system that's supposed to work for us - i.e. a machine - anyone talking about "its interests" is actually referring to the "interests of those that control the machine."
