Viceroymenthol 6th Gear November 30, 2011 Share November 30, 2011 why not just invade NK to stop them make more nukes and possibly take over them? just like Iran. invade then stop production Do you remember the korean war? Vietnam war? The US lost heavily in both these wars and achieved little. They have since learned which neighbourhoods they can fcuk around in, which ones they cannot. The middle east depends very much on the US oil companies as well as the US dollar. North Asia depends less on the USA. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viceroymenthol 6th Gear November 30, 2011 Share November 30, 2011 (edited) so what makes the middle east(Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Libya) so much easier to conquer compared to NK? US oil companies. Also, oil is traded in USD. Part of the reason why USA would like to wipe Iran off the face of the earth is also because Iran is getting the support of some EU, russia and china to get oil traded in other currencies. USA buay tahan. So far, Iran is the only country in the ME who is blatantly obnoxious towards the US. The other ME all gwai gwai listen obediently to big brother. Because they need big brother, because all their economies have is oil. Edited November 30, 2011 by Viceroymenthol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shull Turbocharged November 30, 2011 Share November 30, 2011 I think they have this secret army. They secretly infiltrate enemy countries as massage ladies and strike the enemy when they are at the weakest and most vulnerable. So our little island is their test bed..

My avatar is relatively harmless with the occasional exception of threatening the use of its nuclear arsenal in exchange for foreign aid.

Joseph22 Turbocharged November 30, 2011 Share November 30, 2011 You are then naive. Did I say USA will throw all 5000 nukes or even use nukes at their disposal? I did mention they have more nukes than China but that doesn't mean they must throw any right? Nukes at best are a deterrent or... last resort measure, but not a wise strategy when they still have a large and well balanced military like I mentioned. Sometimes ppl are so funny. I only mentioned nukes in one sentence and ppl ignore all my other sentences about military and BM defence. LOL Anyway, if they are desperate enough, they will throw at China and the ultimate looser is China since they have BM defense which China doesn't. This thread is about China vs USA in military strength isn't it? then why do you even mention it?? BTW, dont look down on China Military strenght. you might not know how many things they are hidding from the world. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Vietnam, they lost because their politicians back home are afraid of angering Soviets (who have sent advisors to help the communist vietnam).. So they pretty much restrict what can and cannot be done by their Generals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even their generals don't think so. If it is anytime they would have done it long ago, before their dependence on china for trade. Anyway if they want to invade china, trade inbalance is one of the reasons to do it. Not a reason not to do it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ithunk 1st Gear November 30, 2011 Share November 30, 2011 USA has more than 5000 nuke warheads whereas China has around 100. USA has BM defence which requires bases all around the world to be effective so that's one thing China does not have. All their $$$ well spent in this area as long as their economy holds. Those who understand warfare know that war is won by the best balanced military (infantry : armored vehicles : airforce : navy), not by the largest infantry. USA without a doubt dominates the world in military. It's estimated that it requires the entire Europe (including UK) to be in alliance to match (not defeat) USA's military. true Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If vietnam and korea were piece of cake, the US troops wouldn't have had so much trouble and so much political infighting at home. For vietnam war, the confusion and indecision at home were direct consequences of heavy US casualties and what appeared to many americans to be a pointless war. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
