I totally agree with this. The only exception I can envision is a bunch of kids willing to sign up to be drone pilots and get their hands on the remote controls to a real machine with weapons. LOL.

Pretty sad at how easy the Boomers frighten with Orc agitprop.

As the smart fellas have been sayin it's better to let Ukraine fight with our weapons and show the Orcs and Chicom they are better off stayin home.

It's got nothing to do with "Ork" agitprop. It's got to do with the path the globalists are taking this country on.

Like I said, China knows what's coming.

Should China really wish to take our ground, they will have a fight on their hands.

Very true, as long as we send soy boys first.


40% casualty rate before they ever see combat.

I expect the initial casualty rate to far exceed any other war. The troops now are soft and have the wrong fragile mindset.

It really needs to happen though.

I'll bet they are in better shape then the US citizens that will be drafted.

Plus they wouldn't need the escape and evasion training.

My 5' 3", 110 lb, eighteen year old grand daughter completed US Army basic and then graduated AIT as a Reserve in Texas two weeks ago. My Son and his Wife, a Marine (ret), went down to the ceremony. Marine? Wife not the Son.

They were certainly not impressed by the current crop of America's Soldiers.

The consensus was, rate of attrition shall be damned high in any real conflict. America no longer has a nation of eighteen year old farm boys to draw on for combat troops. The caveat being, I suppose, neither does any other nation.

Chinese youth, and N Korean kids might be grown in a little tougher environment.

War will be unlike any other using AI. Should one side start to falter, the Big Red Button will come into play. Game over.

That is exactly as I remember quoted in the 60s.

And have read that it was said of every conflict since 1776.

I remember when I was in school, folks saying "If we sent Johnson, Congress, and the Senate to Vietnam, this war would be over yesterday.
