It's not like the 30 million are all going to be in one giant army. They would be divided among different factions. So it would be easier than you believe.
Decentralized command structures and asymmetric warfare are the most difficult tactics for a conventional force to deal with. There would be nothing easy about clearing mountainous terrain or dense urban areas infested with insurgents.
Our military isn't having a difficult time in either of those places.
Tell that to all the dead and injured Marines and Soldiers.
I don't know why people believe we are when Iraq has been defeated and become a boring place for our soldiers and in Afghanistan the vast majority of fighters come from Pakistan and we are already tightening the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan. So really we are not having a difficult time
Yea, never mind the fact that it's taken over seven years, cost us trillions of dollars, and injured or killed about 39,000 Americans.
