snapple2993 Posted April 21, 2004 Posted April 21, 2004 The Russians are broke, and what the hell do they have to do with anyone anyway, keep the commies in their country, and all will be well Once we declare a world war against conventional forces, the Germans will come onboard.... out little wars just arent big enough for them. And the French, C'mon Chief, you know what I think we should do with the French.
navychief Posted April 21, 2004 Author Posted April 21, 2004 Hey Snapple, Oh yes, I do recall your having some rather "choice" comments on them. NC
+Dagger Posted April 21, 2004 Posted April 21, 2004 I don't think the French troops are the problem..I was lucky enough to have served with them in Beruit and they were very professional and had great MREs which they traded with us(until they tried ours,then no more trading :D ).It's governments that dictate policy and unfortuately this time the French and now the Spanish have very weak minded governments.If you ask the French or Spanish soldiers what they think..they'd love to help,thats what soldiers do.The Russia army is made up of alot of conscript soldiers and they currently can't afford to deploy them,with their economic state...just my opinion. So I can't say anything bad against their militaries...just their governments.
navychief Posted April 21, 2004 Author Posted April 21, 2004 I agree with you, Dagger. It is the governments of those countries who are the problem. I definitely do not hold any grudges against the soldiers themselves. NC
+pcpilot Posted April 22, 2004 Posted April 22, 2004 Agreed. In WW2, it wasnt the soldiers will to fight in France that lost them the fight. They were betrayed by their own leaders lack of will. The later resistance movement in France proved the ability of its people to fight. Been reading a lot about the WW2 resistance movement lately. The Danes and lower countries, Norway, France, Poland all had a very strong resistance against Germany. Fascinating reading.
