Why do Americans believe this **** about the best army in the world ?
|
I am a NATO officer, seen the american army at more battlefields than I care to remember ( I am non combatant, medic, peacekeeper ) they never have any strategy, just throwing in a lot of cannon fodder and hardware, they **** the civilians, shoot at negotiators, get badly beaten and leave us to clear the mess when they have left with the tail between the legs. Why are you guys still keeping this ignorant, braindead generals, instead of showing them the exit ? Why do you believe that **** that they would have won, if not that ........ and ...... ? That they actually did win, but only had a tactical retreat ( korea, tactically retreated for 50 years, but coming back ofcourse ) ( shall we just say nothing about Nam ? ) Lately there was a top brass claiming that the third world war with the muslims was inevitable ! Sure, in the states, not in our backyard, they can not even hold their lines in Afghanistan and Iraq. Do this idiots know that Europe and Pakistan have nukes ? EurPak alliance ?

I don't know whether the U.S. has the best Army in the world. What I do know is there is no Army from any sophisticated Western nation that knows how to fight in an urban/guerrilla enviornment. |

The point is that your a non combatant. If this is true, then how do you know anything about strategy or cannon fodder? You shouldn't draw conclusions while sitting in the rear. Why don't you show some backbone and give a little evidence to prove what your trying to say. You just end up looking stupid. |

Sounds like your nation needs to do some professional development of their officers.
Let me guess you are one of those Europeans who stood by and allowed the genocide in the Balkans to continue? Interested how it only ended _after_ the US got involved. |

Where the hell our you from? Chances are we saved your ungreatfull coutry more than once so why dont you just saythank you and go about your buissnes. We do have the worlds strongest army its been proven time and time again. We may have made some mistakes but we have learned from them and thats made us even stronger. How can you judge any army, when you dont even have the balls to serve your own? ppl like you just sit on the sidelines and cry while brave men fight and die to give you the right to do so. So shut your whiny mouth and man up,Join the Millitary if you have a set you panzy |

Dude I have trained with almost all NATO troops and the only ones worht a damn were the British. The rest were miserable bunch of losers and God knows why they were issued rifles (non-toy) and ammunition.
NATO was/is a gigantic joke. Let's see we have a fifty to one kill ratio in Iraq versus the insurgents. Yes we are cannon fodder.
NATO "officer" what a sad tragic joke that term is?. Makes me think of "Chief French Frier" or "Head Cook and Bottle Washer." LOL |

Remember this the next time your country gets invaded and you yell for our help. I wish my country would quit sending aid to every whiner in the world as well. |

Seriously dude; What part of Europe are you from? The part who's a$$ we saved, or the part who's a$$ we kicked? You sound really bitter and/or ungrateful, so it's either one or the other. |

Everyone knows that Britain has the best army(military)in the world and the British are trained to fight in any part of the world and can even fight better than the Americans at Gorilla warfare. |

I know what you mean, and I don't believe it. I know that our military is weak, and it has been since World War II. We don't have good strategies because we don't have good strategists. We have no Washingtons, Grants, Pattons, or Eisenhowers. It's a shame. |

the purpose of these wars is to make billionaires out of people who benefit from increased government spending on military. Communism was used to scare americans to support expensive wars. Now a new "ism" terrorism is used to frighten people into supporting another expensive military conflict. |

Thanks for saying that. I think people who are buying into this facade about army glory are morons. Talk about a waste of taxpayers' money. |
