    Don’t be so defeatist. The US military has been proven time and again to not be the masters of asymmetrical warfare they would have you believe they are.

      I’m not being defeatist. I’m saying in a straight up open confrontation, civilians would lose without the military fracturing with them.

      The Troubles is asymmetrical guerrilla warfare, which is sustainable, but very costly and certainly something to avoid if possible.
