I'm a huge fan of our military. We have the best equipped and trained combat troops ever. Side-by-side comparisons of our fighting machines show that ours are superior in almost every category.
But the days of conventional warfare, involving massive numbers of troops on the ground, firing bullets, grenades and artillery at one another have passed. If a modern general chooses that option, rather than launching a MOAB on the heads of enemy combatants hunkered down and firing on our troops, thereby sacrificing thousands of our soldiers unnecessarily, he/she would be court-martialled...
...please describe how we would be suckered into invading China and Russia at the same time, sending in waves of our soldiers from the sea and the sky, a la the invasion at Normandy...
...or how both countries could launch an invasion on our shores without us destroying their ships and aircraft en route...
