WWII reference, eh, Syntax?

Sorry, we were just covering that in my U.S. History class. I never knew Canadians participated in the war. Largely, I mean. :P

But yeah, Fuck America. I want to move to Switzerland or Australia. They never get involved. :P

and WWI

I mean the Germans called US stormtroopers and as empty as it may sound Hitler respected us, I mean i *guess* it's a complement since he was a brilliant military mind >_>

also our soldiers are still respected even if our army as a whole isn't >_>

That's really not an empty compliment. Hitler may have been an evil bastard who murdered millions, but as you said, he was a brilliant military mind.

That really doesn't surprise me. I mean, the thing about the U.S. military is that we just have enough people to throw at the enemy that the enemy will get tired of fighting or they'll be too many of our casualties littering the battlefield.

Essentially, I'm saying that U.S. soldiers would be cannon fodder in video games. :P

Uh, us 1st-world democracies top the charts in terms of military strength because we have very small forces that are very well-equipped. Notice how Israel and the US, even though we're both in the middle of wars, take tiny fractions of percents of casualties of the opposing side. It's not because we zerg the other side. It's because we shell them without ever even seeing them.
So stfu about the mindless drone/cannon fodder business. We're short on people (hence all the talk about a draft a couple of years ago), and we value each life in our military a lot more than most other militaries.

I'd also contest that Hitler was a brilliant military mind. He would have won the war if he hadn't decided that it'd be a good idea to backstab ol' Josef. The reason it almost worked is you'd have to be completely fucking idiotic to do that, so Stalin didn't see it coming. But then he got his ass handed to him, and rightfully so... because why the hell wouldn't you just be happy taking over Europe, and maybe then you can move on to the world superpowers.

Eh, you're probably right.

It sure seems like that sometimes, though.

No, we actually send out less people, they are just better equipped. The problem is the freakin UN puts so many limitations on how we can fight that it's not funny.

If you shoot, and you haven't been fired on, you get brought up on charges. No hollow points. No .50 cal against humans. No carpet bombing. No Napalm. No this. No that.

I'm like shutup. Terrorists fight however the hell they want to. You can't win against them if you play nice, because they won't return the favor.

Now there, zurg, I'll agree with you. UN regulations on warfare are retarded, what the fuck ever happened to "all's fair in love and war?"

No nukes is the only smart regulation and that's because it fucks up the planet.

Well, isn't the idea that we abide to a certain code that prevents us from using these devastating weapons a good one? After all, it's one of the few things that separates us from those terrorists who fight however they want to. Us abiding the U.N. code is what makes us the "good" guys and them the "bad" guys.

There is reason for those limitations. Perhaps a reason lost in recent years, but there is an idea that us abiding to those limitations makes us the better side.

And the loosing side.

Let's fight. The UN says no guns. You pull out a sword and I shoot you. That's kinda what's gonna happen, only on a larger scale.

Ok. You live in the US so you reson as you do. That's not your own fault. It's like hating on the retards for being born as they are.
BUT. Wouldn't it be better if you dropped that macho bullshit act and started to think like a normal human being instead?

War isn't fun. War isn't cool. What is cool about killing people or getting killed?
Do you think that the chicks will like you more if you kill some kids in the face and ass pound their parents in interrogation camps and say that it is all right because they could be "terrorists"?

I know. Not all US citizen turn gay in prison or in POW camps.
