Belgium was a great place for all the European powers to stop off for a beer on the way to the latest war.

And Malta was a great place for all the conquerors to stop, build something, and leave....
 
Other - All of them since we don't exhibit complete control or get total compliance out of them.
 
I have to go for Pakistan, they are very untrustworthy. They would just as easily kill Americans as work with them (if they could do so without repercussions) because they dislike the Americans and in their country there are groups of people who are true enemies of America.

And I am not attempting to deny you such. You could at least tout it with eloquence as well as with some form of reasoning. Frankly, it's embarrassing when my side treats the Palestinians or the Arab World with such an immature attitude. And I'm not quite sure how Israel gets picked in a poll of being untrustworthy when Pakistan is an option. The Taliban would not exist were it not for the ISI's continual support.

Annihilation? Your post better be good then because the two that tried didn't even pose a challenge. If annihilation can be compared to tickling someone with a feather...then yeah I suppose you could use that term. However in it's actual sense...annihilation....I ROFL'ed.

1. Wiklipedia is not a viable source. Middle schoolers are taught this. Yet you are going to counter with wikipedia. Stunning. Hurry up and go quick review another source before that one bites you in the butt lol.

2. I've studied history in college because at one time I was going to be a history teacher. Nothing I said about Stalingrad was wrong...at all. Again research would do you wonders. In fact I have quite a few books on the matter because that was one of my favorite battles of the Eastern front. Ironically your attempt to claim I don't know anything about the past just fell flat on it's face.

3. You seem to fail and understanding military power. North Korea has a psychological hold over their people. They'll pose a threat for the same reason the Japanese did in WW2 and the same reason Iran poses a threat now. Numbers do matter and always have mattered. Viet Nam....you think those guerrillas we're better than the US forces? Nope....but they knew their land, they had their numbers, and they knew guerrilla tactics better. That's why the US lost Viet Nam. The US was better equipped, better trained, better moral....they lost. So no offense to your nation but I believe if the US left you....the North would BULLDOZE you...not invade...complete bull doze through your nation.

God. If this was annihilation....then count me tickled. You guys are ******s. :lamo

When there is a suitable reason for me to take you 3 seriously...let me know...because those "annihilation" we're as sad as they we're pathetic. Study, research, try harder, come back to me with a real challenge.

So you think 1 billion soldiers is a viable number? Instead of admitting your mistake, your reply is somewhat sadly pathetic.
As for Stalingrad, any cursory look at the troop movements and strengths will show you that I am right.
As for me quoting Wikipedia, I was too lazy to look up any other sources, but I will be glad to show you a wealth of others.
As for you faith in the NK military, let's see how ill-equipped, ill-trained, ill-supplied, and most of all, a starving military fares in modern times.

Hahaha, I had a buddy once say, "What's the use learning a foreign language if they don't teach you the cuss words?" :lol:
 
Hmmm, think I have second thoughts about my vote...probably should have picked the Pakis.
 
Israel has attacked our troops at sea, and sold advanced weapons we gave them to our enemies. Israel is by far the least trustworthy for the simple fact we trust and put so much faith in Israel. They start all kinds of drama in the middle east, then come crying to us for protection. Israel needs to grow up and take care of themselves, and we need to stop sending them money.

Actually, I believe we should stop sending every country money. If a country wants aid from us, they can join us and become a state. Otherwise, get out of our pockets.

I'm always amazed when ignorant and bigoted people use the term Zionist as if it were some sort of dirty word.

All it means is that a person supports the rights of self-determination for the Jewish people.

It only makes them appear even more laughable than they are already, so I have no problem with that.

There is really only one explanation that accounts for such irrational and idiotic choices and I think we both know what it is.

That Israel IS a US ally, and that Pakistan isn't?

Yes, unintentionally.

If you mean to China, we've also done that. In any case, we'd really have no room to complain - we've sold weapons to Israel's enemies.

We put even more trust in Great Britain, but that doesn't make them less trustworthy.

When's the last time we've intervened on their behalf?
 
I can not believe that anyone would say Israel or South Korea.....What planet are these folks from.

I'm always amazed when ignorant and bigoted people evince outrage, when anyone dares to suggest that Israel isn't beyond reproach.
