Time to let Winston Churchill speak to the immature yanks again(and hell yeah, I've got a poppy pin on my chest ): - Never, never, never believe any war will be smooth and easy or that anyone who embarks on that strange voyage can measure the tides and hurricanes he will encounter. The statesman who yields to war fever must realize that once the signal is given, he is no longer the master of policy but the slave of unforeseeable and uncontrollable events… incompetent or arrogant commanders, untrustworthy allies, hostile neutrals, malignant fortune, ugly surprise, awful miscalculations. |

hotwax:The newly improved iskander is the bomb. It has the ability to fool any missile defence system by producing diversionary missiles. Even the RS-20 voyevoda should be at par with the patriot missiles,if not better. Infact the reason why america stopped carrying out military drills with Georgia was because Russia(after continously warning america) silently deployed iskander missiles to the border. America didn't know if those missiles were for Newyork or Georgia,so they withdrew. 1 Like |

solomon111: The newly improved iskander is the bomb. The only reason America stopped the drill was because Russia threatened to start supplying missiles to Cuba and Venezuela. The sole purpose of the missile defence shield in polland is to stop russian missiles. If Russian fires these missile, then they are helping americans perfecting these project. America is not afraid of Russian missile, but it was due to political reason. Russia also threatened to stop cooperating with America on Iran. Do you understand these simple logics? |

honeric01: First, gossips and not gossipersHow did you conclude that I am one. Is it because I am female?..well, na u sabi. The short service is for professionals innit?

Russia can turn america in 30minutes into a uranium wasteland,and no defence system in the world can save them. America are very well aware of this. 1 Like |

Jastombutex11:Dude, u don too watch all dos american war movies...dey always portray demselves as d gud guys fighting for d right cause n dt na big fallacy. Ve u read sun tzu's art of war? Sun Tzu said...1.he who makes haste to the battlefield is @ a disadvantage dan he who's already there, never lay siege to a walled city. 2.Wen ur force greatly outnumbers ur enemy,u surround him. Wen ur force is 2-1, u divide ur force, wen ur forces are similarly matched,u cn offer battle. But wen ur enemies force outnumbers urs, u retreat. A small force might put up a spirited fight, but @ d end, d larger force will always win. Numbers count in warfare, same as technology n skill.dos Asian guys no dey finish oh...der population gives dem dt egde and nowadays, military technologies and weapons are readily available for whoever is interested @ d right price.for every new military innovation,d technologies re quickly stolen, copied n replicated elsewhere. tk iran, north korea, pakistan, india for example...who u think say they give them their weapons, na d same super powers and dts y dey are having small bragging power. Arms running is a very lucrative business even in d western nations. 1 Like |

For all dos saying NA is crap and 1st frm d back and largest police force, can't handle BH....n blah blah blah.you all no try atall First, a nations army is suppose to b an external force to maintain its sovereignty, nt to act as an internal force like d police and dts y der doctrines, trainings and behaviors re different. 2.do u honestly think that for our size, location and geopolitical standing in d world we should match dos western n asian nations in terms of numbers, weapons technology and activities.we are not into the business of war like them and dts y dey justify d huge amounts they allocate to der militaries with all dos force projections, govt toppling and conflict resolutions they engage in. Which nation will acquire all dt personnel, weapons and technologies and not want to use it for its own strategic selfish objectives. Our strength is regional and dts very ok for now. wen we get to the stage of playing in d global field, den we can begin d acquisition. |

solomon111: Do you know what it means for america if cuba and venezuela gets hold of iskander missiles? Russia? Are you joking. I can see you are joking. You are not a serious human being. I cant continue arguing with you. Iraq/Afganistan are Russians allied, why didnt Russia go to war with Iraq? So who told America doesnt have nuclear bomb? Even a tiny country israel has. So let russia fires and America reply. Who is Russia when we have Germany, UK, France? iskander cant fight all wars. Wake up! iskander iskader iskander. Out of the thousands of state-of art techologies. Do you even understand missile war far? Has iskander passed through europe space? Europe is American allied and will never allow that pass without bringing it down. HAs it perced Europe? endored antlantic ocean? You are not worth arguing with. ISKANDER guy. French has good missile system, Germans too. You are fixated on iskander as if its the only weapon on earth. Since when has Russia gone to war except cold war? Russia cannot compete in modern warfare. Russia turn the USA to uranium waste land. Do you know what Trident submarine are caring? Trident submarines carries nuclear war head and can deploy anywhere they are. Thats what is called "Distributive attacking system" Russia is world power, there is nothing making them powerful than Germany. Germany also have their strong point. They also build the most sophisticated submarine in the world. It doesnt make them more powerful than the USA. USA even purchase submarine from them. Every super power have their own strong point. I guess Russia is iskander. Dont forget French has Rapheal Bomber. Thats their strong point. You need some lessons guy. I am just tired. I am chilling out. This argument makes no sense |

hotwax: Battles will always be fought, won and lost on d ground.even with a very powerful military strength like air superiority, u still need ground troops to secure conquered territories.dts y dey establish bases, outposts and others.a geek can't establish such from his AC chilling room. When bases are established, dey are always susceptible to sabotage, guerrilla warfare, insurgency et al. There will always be casualities in warfare on both warring sides.who has more forces is @ d advantage. Plus dnt forget that in modern warfare, as u have geeks in one side's camp controlling drones so also does the other side too, who wan dull for battle, mk dem com slaughter am..all warfare is based on deception and all is fair in war so every side comes up with its own strategy to defeat the enemy. even NAF hs got drones too,built in naija (aldoh dem just dey start)... |

If you don't know any or haven't met one, it may be hard for you to picture a woman doing well in any field. Your case is understandable but continually speaking this way is unforgivable. |

manuell1021: but america dare nt tink of goin 2 war wit china.america will obliterate China in a matter of days if it come to military comfrontation. Guy is not about numbers o, that does not win wars. Today's wars are worn by technology, military sophistiscation and advancements not by size. The America military is the most funded military in the world, with more than seven times the amount China spends on its military. China still buys major military weapons from the US and Russian, so wetin you dey yarn. Even the economic advancement in China is pushed largely by majorly companies in the US and europe. So forget abeg china still dey learn. |

So forget abeg china still dey learn.With all their sophistication,have they won any battle recently(iraq and afganistan insurgents are gud case studies and those are not even sovereign states). If u say numbers don't count,then y re they d second largest army in terms of personnel. All those advanced weapons and tech devices still need people to operate them (drones,predators,subs,missile systems,apaches,fighter jets,bombers,EOD robots, aircraft carriers,TFG's et al) and for u to project a sizeable reckoning force, u need all those in very large numbers including personnel too. Its only those who know the evils of war know how to go about its business. I think d US will think thrice b4 engaging China in warfare. D US will probably avoid outright confrontation and opt for covert activities, diplomacy and trade offs. A cold war mit be as far as they go.they can't annihilate them.(How them wan tk slaughter dem...abi Chinko don turn to nama. even d US can't obliterate billions of nama n counting in a matter of days, I'd say maybe a month or two, nt to talk of intelligent crafty humans like d chinese) |
