the War only aided the Red revolution, but it was going to happen anyway, muscleserge

So much for that "always strong" nonsense then.

"also the absence of the Czar from the throne due to him being at the eastern front most of the time also aided alot in the revolution. ."

Nicholas was an idiot no doubt.

"The economic problems had roots long before the war."

And were signifigantly worsened by it. Again, so much for the "always strong" claim.

[QUOTE="muscleserge"] Ass-raping wow, you need to go to history class.CaptHawkeye

:roll: :lol: Don't respond to the argument or anything. Just attack my character!

you called me a douche a few posts back. and if you elaborate by what you meant by ass-raping, I would gladly respond. As you can see it is atleast 3 vs 1 here so I am doing my best.

Boo god damn hoo. Unlike your post above, I actually presented an AGRUMENT with my post.

Oh, and by the way. Rejecting an argument because you don't like how it was worded is a cop out. Known as "style over substance". Your little "history class" tirade, was an ad hominem. So don't bother confusing the two.

Where did I ignore your argument, I never disagreed that Russia didn't take casualties, its just that the way you said it, you implied that it was all due to its military, when there were lots of other reasons behind it. I'd like to see the US fight a world war when it is on the verge of a major revolution.

Yes!:D For some reason the topic of "who's are next war going to be against?" is always a popular discussion topic. I don't know if this is unique to America, but I wouldn't be suprised if it is.

Not relevant, the claim you made was that Russia has ALWAYS been strong. When the reality is that Russia has had many bad years as well. This is just World War 1, what about the Sino-Russo war? The Japanese had no problems with the Russians then. Even the Soviet Union was largely irrelevant for much of the early 20th century until post WW2. The Soviet Union had actually spent many of its early years reliant upon foreign aid.

Yeah for the first time I'm starting to think there's quite a bit of truth to those bumper stickers people have on the back of their cars that say "only one" next to an American flag. It's true, the United States is defnitely...unique.

350 million what?

china has 350 million registered soldiers. plus 250 million reserve. so they have 600 million soldiers out of a billion ppl

uh, no, I remember reading the official stats a while back. They have a active military of 2.5 million. But if push came to shove they have 280 million able body males that could serve.

We don't love war that much, we only spend about 20% of our income on the military, and 2 out of every 3 Americans is in the military.

Just because of Bush, that doesn't mean we're out to war.

Where do you Americans get off saying the Chinese army isn't trained? Of COURSE they are trained and they out number you guys AND messing with them would be messing with other asian countries. U.S.A has a strong army and i would definantly want them to win if WW3 happens becuase my country is basically the 2nd america but the chinese have numbers and when you have a army with many more people in it then you do rushing at you and shooting the only thing thats going to happen is you losing. Compare the USA military numbers to the chinese............

Our airforce could reduce every chinese city, airbase, stronghold, and fleet in one month. Our hunter-killer teams would strike deep and silent into every bunker, killing every high priority target, then falling silent never to be seen again. Our tanks would destroy any armored resistance, before they could be seen by the chinese. Our proud, excelent, and highly expert Army Infantry and Marine Infantry would out flank every chinese unit that trys to even begin to engage our forces.

In 2003 Baghdad was the largest air defended city in the world, and we lost not a single plane the entire campaign.

Guerilla warfare isnt a problem for our military, however it is a problem for our politicians which like to dump their ignorance into the military which means we can't operiate at 100 percent.
