Does the American Eagle have the guts to confront the Russian Bear in Battle today?. God knows America has the technological edge with regards to overall weaponry. But I used to hear that the Russian Army had a numerical edge.
Is the situation still the same or has there been any major changes with regards to how the American military matches up to the Russian Military.?

OMG! Not another

Do you have the guts to admit that you are posting asinine crap?

The last thing a Bear and an Eagle need is to be fighting over is a mouse.

Now with a screen name like "Bootneck" you should be the last person to critique someones post.

And no, its not asinine crap, its a legitimate question ,given the current geopolitical situation in the world.

Oh boy! You really are coming out with asinine comments today.

You obviously haven't the foggiest idea what a bootneck is, have you. For your education and to save you further embarrassment, it is a navy slang term for a Royal Marine.

Now, care to explain why my screen name makes me the last person to critique someone's post?

Standing by for more asinine comment.

Please enlist. We know you are dying to do it.

Oh Jesus, another conservative who wants to go to war with russia.

Why are you so desperate for war, when everybody here knows there's not a chance in hell you would volunteer to go over and fight to the death for Georgia?

I'm willing to wager any amount of money, that a decade from now this Georgian-Russian conflict will barely be remembered by anyone, and will merit barely a footnote in the history books, characterized as some week long minor, nearly forgotten border conflict over an unimportant small territory that has been in dispute for decades.

So calm down.

Warmongering again, huh? You think your question isn't assinine? What is it exactly you intend to take them on with?

Oh I see, whats so royal about a country that steals other countries cultural relics ,then puts them on display at the British musuem.When are you "Royals" going to return many of those stolen artifacts that are now on display in the British Museum?Mr. Bootneck?.

I told you that you'd come back with more asinine comment! Are you really that predictable, or am I just rather brilliant at recognising that you've reached your own level of incompetence. Now, do stick to the subject old fella, and answer the question. In case you've forgotten again, I'll remind you:

Care to explain why my screen name makes me the last person to critique someone's post?

If you are unable to answer, may I suggest that you go forth and multiply.

The first thing you should do when you find yourself in a hole - stop digging.

and just WTF does that have to do with the subject of either this thread or anything BootNeck has posted?

I believe you were yammering on about do we have the guts to confront Russia on the battlefield, a warmongering, idealistic point of view that does not take into account the reality that we don't have currently have anything available to confront them with.

Perhaps if we hadn't unnecessarily opened a second front prior to completely securing the first front we might have enough assets to respond to another global emergency that actually requires military intervention.

A basic tenet of military strategy I would think someone claiming to be a vet would understand.
