Your myopic view of the US military obviously comes from watching Gilligans Island or ninja movies. It has no bearing in the real world. But since you see yourself as such an expert on the military what would you suggest for us?

The US military is a Pu$$y. That is why they only fight third world countries. Why havent they attacked germany, russia, or china? Yes they are still developing countries, but still why havent any of those countries been attacked? Oh I know why...because we americans like to pick on little helpless countires and then we think we are all big and and brag to our other marine buddies at the bar about how some towel head got sniped..yea real brave...NOT

So you equate bravery with fighting a country that is a nuclear power.
Good lord!
Nukes are a political weapon Scooter, not a battlefield tool.

Ron Pual is off his rocker on this one. No one is talking about invading and occupying Pakistan. It is a cheap tool to use some concocted scenario as a political tool. This is one of the worst cases of a strawman that I have seen.
A straw man is a component of an argument and is an informal fallacy based on misrepresentation of an opponent's position.[1] To "attack a straw man" is to create the illusion of having refuted a proposition by substituting it with a superficially similar yet unequivalent proposition (the "straw man"), and refuting it, without ever having actually refuted the original position.
Libya is not Iraq is not Afghanistan is not Pakistan.
