I'm not concerned at all. We are 50 years ahead of any country that might attack us. We can shoot them to pieces before they can even see us.

its not that we have technology they dont have access to, its that they can't afford to implement it on widescale terms like we can.

Closer to 5-10 yrs.

And technology only matters so much. Ultimately, numbers and access to resources trumps technology.

i was thinking about 2-4 years but your assumption may be closer

as to that second part, no doubt, point in case afghanistan and iraq ...

and ultimately if as some in here commented, the same would be true within the US should it ever be invaded... the large number of underground resistance cells that would form would be astronomical. what we are dealing with in the middle east, any invader would deal with in this country

When you're a communist nation and your choices are either be poor or join the army, you join the army.

i didn't say attack .. i said invade, which would necessitate a foreign power landing troops on our soil .... meaning we wouldn't be sending troops anywhere

nowhere did i say attack, my entire comment was in direct support of a invading faction
