[QUOTE]Originally posted by Malnurtured Snay: [QB] [QUOTE]H, it's the FOURTH-largest army in the world! We're DOOMED!"[/QUOTE]But, Rob, surely you would agree that if the Pentagon tells the media that tells the masses that fighting against Iraq is probably going to be costly, it's a good thing to believe, don't you? Because, frankly, you're acting rather silly at the moment. No one (even, as admitted, you) expected the mass defections that occured. We're talking about a military that had eight-years of combat experience against Iran. This isn't like the Taliban, whose main body of troops kept switching sides with the Northern Alliance and did a bit of skirmishing and beating up helpless civillians. This was a military with combat experience we were talking about. And a big military, to boot. Fourth largest doesn't sound that great, until you realize that a preemptive strike on Saudi Arabia by Iraq could've eliminated our beachhead, as well as any forces we had on the ground.
