Fighting a war while trying to come across as "the good guys" is really difficult and probably shouldn't even be attempted.
Arabs suck harder than a vacuum cleaner.
It's expensive without any return investment.
There are no real objectives, killing is limited in scope
Capture means they basically can't be killed, and then they are housed with other radicals and forced to co-operate with people they would have otherwise been enemies and they have to be released eventually
Rich people don't pay or have any skin in the game for wars and reap all the benefits
Lefties saying they only want LEO/mil people to have weapons is a bold face lie they want to disarm them just like everyone else
Lefties basically just want terrorists to kill people to further their talking points and political agendas while blaming everyone else while being just as responsible for the wars happening
Leaving full power rifle rounds was a mistake.
Israel needs open borders
the US federal government is full of shit and can never be trusted
That we need to stop letting politicians make tactical decisions.
That's some Jow Forums tier dumb.
1/10 made me respond
Counter-insurgency is about playing the long game and steamrolling goat fuckers for a decade doesn't matter if you pick up toys and go home before actually improving things in any substantial way.
Stability means going to war costs people something.
jews are the root of all evil
>greatest lessons learned from our modern wars
To throw out whatever doctrine we learned from that war at the first possible opportunity.
Then we can "relearn" in another few decades.
That Genghis Khan was the only effective general and his methods would have ended every counter insurgency within a given year.
Don't fight a guerrilla war
Don't start proxy wars
Don't rely on bribing warlords as a peacekeeping method
Don't arm Islamic extremists etc
Gurgle the Cum Dumpster was a caveman ideot who fucked anything and everithing on too legs
Tanks are actually not obsolete.
learning implies it's something you didn't know before
>Implying fucking everything isn't the correct answer
Oh user...
What government should be trusted?
Going into a war without an exit stratergy is retarded
We were discussing post war beofre the end of WW2
switzerland, singapore, hong kong, poland, czechia, new zealand....quite a few.
even china desu, they're corrupt and oppressive, but they don't pull random traps on ordinary citizens.
Your first two are retarded but I do believe we have to expect bigger time commitments for these types of wars
Based chinks

STOP. DYING. FOR. J*****. PROFITS
Also withdrawing troops for political brownie points destroys all progress.
As a Afghan infantry veteran I can say that my advice is that we need to inflict as absolute much violence and horror on the enemy before the public realizes what is happening. We got fucked by the public getting sick of the war before we could crack the whip on the afghans. We gave them the benefit of doubt on the front end and it fucked us.
>It was also reported that Tian had a quarrel with his superiors because they had forced his wife to have an abortion when she was pregnant with their second child, in accordance with China's One-child policy. Tian already had a daughter, but he came from the rural area in Henan Province, where strong traditional values emphasize siring a male child. Thus Tian secretly planned on having a son until someone in the army revealed his plan and the birth control officer forced his wife to have an abortion. By this time his wife was already seven months pregnant and died during the operation along with the unborn fetus (later discovered to be a boy).[6]
>birth control officer
lmao
>Arabs suck harder than a vacuum cleaner at trying to emulate western or soviet-style armies.
FTFY. That's relaly the biggest reason why groups like Hezbollah, the Taliban or ISIS perform consistently better than your average arab dictator's army.
"Cracking the whip" has been tried time and time again in Afghanistan. It never worked, no matter how hard the current empire trying to fuck with the Afghans tried it. All it means is they get even more vicious and brutal in response the second you're forced to take the boot off their necks.
All those people who stood around as he beat her to death could have trivially ganged up on him and saved her. No man should be allowed to survive while beating a woman to death like that.
Evil abounds and cowards abound.
That modern doctrine from highly developed nations only work for armies that are at lest some what large, well funded, and have made long term investments in officer training programs.
en.wikipedia.org
Iraq did not have that last one.
In the face of modern doctrine not working older methods of warfare DO WORK against foes that they themselves can't effectively use modern doctrine. See the same war for details.
>Counter-insurgency
What I have learned on the matter is the medieval method works in that type of war: Build castles everywhere. Make them part of the landscape. Against foes that at most have RPGs and man portable mortars fixed fortifications do work. Non of that Hesco bastions, they do not send the right message: this building will be here longer then you will be.
cowards die a painful death.
Tricare fucking sucks, and the VA will do everything in their power to either mislabel your TBI as PTSD or just get you addicted to opiates to shut you up.
so many stormniggers here
60$ IDE > 3 million $ Tank
Didn't tanks have a pretty easy time with IEDs?
You can never have too much air cover.
>mandatory Tricare briefing in 10 minutes. Put your phone away. I'm going to stand up at the back of the room to make sure everyone is listening.
the jungle can eat a dick
>Arab generals suck harder than a vacuum cleaner
Fixed
They suck because they're fat and lazy with oil money. You see flashes of their past reputation in Iraq and Syria when they are motivated. Guess what will happen when the oil runs out. You will remember fondly the tender mercies of ISIS.
For real. I've been on the internet a long time, but I guess I'm becoming normie-ified because that actually upset me. It's a shame people are shitheads sometimes.
Everything is gay and the jews ruin everything.
Motivation was all that made them formidable at all. Their level of incompetence will forever fuck them.
Can you niggers leave this board
>npc learned a new word
this
>Query: Any problem.

based graphic, thanks user
He's not wrong.
Modern war is not about winning, it’s about occupation. We are in the ME and Africa for resources. We are there to get in before China does. Same with foreign aid which are basically bribes to keep the Chinese out.
How to break any NPC with one neat trick.
Query: Name a problem in the world that is not directly or indirectly caused by the jews.
You blame them like they blame whitey you're the same as they are. You also ruin everything you touch which once again means you're the same.
Right on red don't mean you got to turn right on red.
>muh Jow Forums
oh fuck off retard
Kike detected.
Not a liberal princess, you're just retarded and doing more harm than you can understand.
I mean, yeah, it's pretty damn difficult when you're using multi-million dollar weapons to bomb mud shacks full of civilians.
Apparently your historical memory is as hazy as the average fool's. You've forgotten the Second World War, and what a great advantage it is to have the people feel they are on the righteous side. You've forgotten Vietnam too, apparently.
Killing everything in sight, on sight is the only option, when dealing with insurgents.
Yeah he really is, get a fucking job.
Poor people are having too many damn kids.
>socioeconomic problems are unrelated to the jews
Lel, litterally age old.
Go be a pussy somewhere else
Show us the hard evidence that proves Jews are behind the population growth in third-world nations.
Starvation in Africa
The Mexican Immigration crisis
Russia
Ghouls taking farms in South Africa
Your turn, name one problem that ALL sources unequivocally agree is caused directly or indirectly by the Jewish
None.
see
You guys couldn't argue your way out of a preschool fight.
Good one
You can't half-invade a country
it's mainland China
those aren't humans you're seeing. merely, soulless sacks of flesh without a single drop of empathy or independent thought
That's kind of bull shit. If she aint my kin or a close friend why should I risk my skin for hers? She wouldn't do the same for me. She could get beaten to within an inch of her life and become a quadriplegic and some guy will want to marry her and take care of her. If I got fucked up in that fight at all I'd just get tell I'm a worthless nigger that is a drain on society and should kill himself. Nobody would ever hire me for a job, I wouldn't qualify for being a welfare queen. I'd be a crippled bum on the streets that has to eat out of dumpsters.
when you make a group inclusive for everyone, you do so at the expensive of those who originally were the backbone.
also, never trust jews
So you can’t answer or what? Because the Jewish are literally age old as well, that wasn’t the question. Assuming you’re user who asked the question, then you said, name one problem in the world that isn’t directly or indirectly caused by the Jewish
I named three, two of which aren’t very old at all, in fact, both taking place within the last 3 years
Mexicans coming over here is old, but still, not caused by the Jewish
>npcs can’t answer questions, only repeat simple commands
>you completely fail to acknowledge what I said, because “Lel age old problems” and regurgitate an answer you already made
>hmmmm
shut the fuck up carl
The extreme left and extreme right both hate Jews. Which side is stormniggers? Just curious if I qualify.
Hezbollah have been fighting in large conventional Russian formations in Syria recently. Also I would say any group of persons fights better in gureillawarfare. It’s the easiest type of warfare to win wars with as history has shown.
>ask an npc to name a problem not caused by the jews
>he responds with social and economic problems
Told you guys I would break him.
centrist here.
can't fuckin stand em. they are the ultimate at divide and conquer.
Someone tell this bot that it's about setting an example.
Uhh, buddy, the jews are behind the immigration problem (there would not be one if they didn't lobby to let them in), the African problem (caused by jews in the British government dividing up Africa and causing massive social and economic problems due to it), russia (who is the 2nd largest holder of jews in the world, right behind jewland itself), and i cant even BELIEVE you brought up south Africa.
Son, you are an NPC.
ARGUMENT: TRUE
LOSING: TRUE.

Occupation and COIN is a waste of time, lives, and money.
No, I'm afraid our own Commie trained leftists aare the culprit. Now fuck off.
Whole lotta steamin goys in this thread.
>Commie trained leftists
Commies are jews, aka, jew trained leftists, aka, indirectly caused by the jews.
Thank you.
>it's not da joos, it's da commies
Karl Marx was Jewish. Really activates the almonds, eh?
It has actually worked in iraq. Pro US government (as much as an ME nation can be), who has defeated ISIL and is consolidating.
Agin not Jewish but your retarded fetish for them never ceases to amaze me.
Both?
>posts an infograph
>they are not even all jews

I'm sure my stringing together bullshit will work this time.
are you just trying to turn this into Jow Forums or.... kvetching?
Best post in the thread
Go away you Jewish golem
>What are the greatest lessons learned from our modern wars?
That the Rhodies, South Africans, and the 80's Soviets had the superior doctrines.
