Also , more armor and more "Boots" on the ground allows a quicker war, which also minimizes casualties, esp. civilians as the enemies' armed forces can be more quickly defeated thus ending the need to bomb "rear areas". 3rdly "supposed intercepts of Russian info"??? 1 must considder the source, and that it is Rumor...at best, yet is being spoken about as if it were fact. .....Is this yet again a .."Blame America first" ??? sure sounds like it. .....Lets believe any rumor we hear if it's bad.....and ignore what we see in mutiple media on numerous channels, and in print. Written by media people there in the field. Or do the armchair "war experts" at home know so much more ? ........You want to pretend to know US military tactics, and munitions...tread softly, you're in my ballpark now :-) Respectifully, Jennifer USAF ------------------------ Yahoo!
