Iran's new fighter - Page 2

A new fighter, that's nice. Stronger than the F-18, impressive. Now if only they had pilots with the gonads to take on our F-18s, I might worry.

Inflatable dolls?

Yes I am being very sarcastic today.

I doubt, their faith does not allow inflatable dolls...

I just hate it when people under estimate their opponets. Sometimes the underdog really lays a spanking on the aggressor.

Look at Japan Vs America (1941-1945) for instance. Japan thought the same of herself and felt confident enough to take on America and win. One Japanese naval officer was quoted as saying "I think we may have awoken a sleeping giant" after the US quickly got its bearings and came back with a counter attack. The rest of the war Japan kept getting knocked back into the corner of the ring and never stood a chance.

Final Score

America 1
Japan 0 (For just getting stomped flat out)

Look at America Vs. Vietnam (1965-1975). America thought she was just gonna go in and wipe the floor with those small scrawney little asian people. America so boldly flex her might at the much weaker nation, yet it took 10 years for America to realize this b-tch wasn't going to back down.

Final Score

Vietnam = 1
America = 0 (for leaving the match)

Look at America VS. Iraq (1990-91). America once again coming to the aid of a foriegn land. This time to free Kuwait from Iraq. America made a mistake though and once again left a fight.

Final Score

Iraq = 1
America = 0 (for leaving the match)

Look at America Vs. Iraq #2 (2003-present). America once again cockey as ever and bent on the take over of Iraq this time because every Iraqi is a terrorist as well as every Arab. How will this one end? America once again thought she was just going to go in and wipe the floor with some third world country but has shown that it is once again locked in the middle of the ring with the (supposedly much weaker opponent) Each country is throwing a jab into each other but the Iraq nation is not showing any signs of weakness.

Final Score

Iraq = ?
America = ?

My prediction is that America will once again run from this match. They will soon realize that terrorism is NOT a nation and is an act or tatic used by some nations and that "act" or "tactic" is never going to go away. It just another form of guerilla warfare employed by nations with much less financial means.

Wouldn't the Brits in the Revolutionary war call what American patriots did (terrorism)? Hiding in the bushes and firing at the Brits like cowards while the British Army was used to a more civilized fight on the battlefield. It was that ignorance of the Brits back then to A) Wear a bright red coat that made it easy for a sniper in the woods to see B) Not expect a weaker and financially poorer country to fight dirty.

It's also frustrating when people make predictions about the future. Vietnam was a Soviet proxy war which was fought from the comfort of the Oval Office and the 1st Iraq war ended when the Collaltion fulfilled the "UN" mandate by freeing Kuwait. Yes we are guilty of coming to the aid of foriegn lands but Europe didn't seem to mind during the 2 world wars and no one has ever turned away our money when faced with a disaster. Yes, we are "cockey" and though you may not like us, our achievements have been many. Perhaps you should concentrate on your own government's shortcomings instead of railing against mine.

I'm from this country. I'm not trying to "rail" it either. I was just making a point that every enemy or nation needs to be respected. You can't claim the US a winner until the war has been won.
