Even if they wanted, the US can't afford the invasion in terms of human resources. Too much of their fleet is focused on Taiwan at the moment.
Isn’t the US military setup to fight 2 wars at the same time so it would be possible just unlikely.
I think there might be a difference between what US officials say and what is actually true. They're having a real hard time meeting recruiting quotas. Plus recent invasions haven't really supported the idea that the US is able to win invasions it starts.
Not for decades, Nato’s scaled back to only having the capacity to fight on one front while holding another.
1 major war (Russia or china) and a regional conflict (Iraq, Iran, Yemen, Canada, etc.).
I mean if you cant invade just bomb them until they stop. Even if you have to level the entire area.
You should apply to join the army, you have the qualifications for it.
On side note, you should look at the map for a bit maybe it will help you in your career.
Yeah but they're trying that. The Saudis tried that for like a decade before they started. It's harder than it appears to bomb a nation into submission.
Edit: just in case someone says some genocidal thing about collectively punishing an entire ethnic group, if you're from certain communities in the fediverse I probably can't see your comments, but that would obviously be a horrific crime to actually do.
Lol we just saw another country try that approach and fail. Something something definition of insanity.
So the Israeli approach?
So where are all of these people supposed to go after they uproot their entire lives in less than two weeks?
They already have nothing.
So you’re telling me that they don’t have any sources of water or homes?
No animals, no gardens, no pantries, no stores or market?
Nothing that can't be found somewhere else and that without supporting terrorists...
So the people in the middle of nowhere, doing nothin except living in a village based around the only well in miles and living an agrarian lifestyle are supporting terrorists and deserve to either have to die or leave everything they know behind except what they can carry on their backs?
That's not reality and we both know that. Gaza is basically one big city.
We are talking about Yemen though?
