China thinks it can defeat America in battle

^Does it involve bacon and/or boobs?

Anything worth doing involves bacon and boobs.

I must confess, I have a weakness for bacon and boobs.

 

[engineergurl]

I could go for a little less boobs and a bit more bacon, but that's just me...

I can understand. What about sausage? Sausage is great with bacon!

I was just going to make a Red Dawn reference. Maybe I'll watch that tonight.

ROBERT FTMFW!!!!

I loved that movie... it was so much more believable than all your space movies...

Edit- then again, it also had Patrick Swayze in it...

Actually, that movie had a ton of young stars in it.

Space movies? Are you trying to tell me that cybernetic organisms from the planet Cybertron do NOT exist? :huh: Lies....

But anyway- I will say, this thread instigated discussions in our house tonight... and I do believe if they were smart enough, they could figure it out... mostly because we came up with a way they could- however it would have to be the most ingenious military strategy that they have ever come up with...

IMO, the most plausible way of realistically crippling an infrastructure is through cyber warfare. Watch or re-watch Die Hard 4 as an example. A realistic (not Hollywood style) "fire sale" would put a pretty good dent in things. No emergency response services, no way to call anyone, and basically a power grid in mass disarray. Now you're not only fighting a military, but citizens that are in a complete panic.

^^^It's how the Decepticons did it in the 1st Transformers movie. Scramble the satellites and suddenly your opponent is blind...

And where are they now? Either dead or crazy... and no I disagree with your argument of cyber warfare, while that would probably be their logic as well, we can semi-prepare for that- might do mad crazy damage to us, but I don't think they would beat us that way

 

[DanHalen]

If we used McAfee antivirus to defend ourselves from cyber warfare we're doomed!

Would you like to play a game of chess?

Agree to disagree. I didn't actually say that cyber warfare is how they would defeat us. That's how they would in essence, disable the infrastructure. From there, military forces would be able to then make their own moves. If you can get it on Netflix, check out DH4. It's kind of scary to see what really can be done with a computer.

Agreed on McAfee......good lord. :facepalm:
