To: American men won the revolutionary war. American men won the Indian wars.
Me: I disagree with you. Technology won those wars and the numbers of men which could be put up to fight wars, where the opposite side had fewer men and resources.
Take the Indian wars for example, if the cavalry had bows and arrows, like the Indians and fought the same way, I am sure that Geronimo would have wiped the floor with all of you – the only reason you beat the Indians was there were a lot more of you and bows and arrows against rifles and repeating rifles was always going to be a one way contest.
Take the Japanese in WW2 – they did not have the technology that America had, nor did they have radar, nor did they have the troop numbers that the Allies could put up and if it were not for the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, then the American troops would have been slaughtered when they tried to take Japan by sheer weight of numbers, because the Japanese were dug in and prepared to die for their Emperor and waiting to fight to the death and to the last person.
Death to them was to fight for Glory and they were not afraid to die for their beliefs.
Technology won that war for America and its Allies.
America introduced the Laws which have been adopted by all member countries of NATO, in a document which was signed by all, some years ago and as a consequence women have the rights that men once enjoyed and men now have the rights that women once had – there has been a complete role reversal and that is down to politics more than anything else.
Lots of men go to prison for crimes which did not exist a few years ago, backdated to offenses which sometimes date back to many years ago and there are ample prisons for them to be housed in, but you don’t see many women going to prison, or for very long, so the scales of justice weigh heavier on men, than they do on women. It is how it is.
What men deserve these days, is pretty much out of our hands, because politics and justice go hand in hand and all it takes is a signature on a document for a Law to be passed, without you even being aware of it, or how it impacts on you, until it does.
If there is another war, at some stage, I wonder how the various forces are going to acquire troops when all of the men have been de-sexed and the women won’t fight, after all, when you are trained to kill people and you do and then you get charged and punished for killing civilians in those wars, where is the justice there?
Would the other side care about killing off your civilians, if it helped them win the war against you – not in a million years, the more of you they kill, the fewer of you to rise up against them later on – so if you can’t apply the same rules of war against them, that they WILL use against you, why would any of you bother to fight at all?
One thing is for sure, The Taliban and remnants of ISIS must be laughing themselves silly at the stupidity of the American’s that they would punish their own troops for firing on civilians, bearing in mind, you can’t tell one from the other, until you got shot in the back by someone you thought was a civilian, dressed like a civilian and who you thought was a civilian, until you dropped down dead from the bullet they sent you and what is the message you want to send then?
