I seem to remember predicting things like this happening in a thread a few years ago. 

Supposedly China's war minister stated that by 2010 they would have an army capable of successfully invading and capturing the USA.

Pics or shens

I seriously doubt that any country could ever succesfully invade and capture the United States.

I think they could "invade" but, they wouldn't make it any further then the Sierra Nevada... you also have to remember, besides our Army thing we also have Millions of people who own firearms and I could deffinetly see the NRA creating its own Militia.

I'd have to agre. The sheer numbers of everything, coupled with the precision of everything that would have to be done and our army here to defend us would be more than enough to at least keep them from succeeding completely.

I'd be a hell of a fight, but even our citizens are armed for it, I've got enough guns and ammo to last for a month of shooting 100rds out of every gun I own everyday. I've got 18 guns.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Invading the U.S. would be a suicide mission.

thats pretty scary too, but yeah, there is no way they could invade us without major nuclear weapons bombardments, and we would probably still be alright

Our army isn't here.

I've always thought China was a threat....And yeah, I feel sorry for Tiawan too. We've pledged our support if they're invaded, but I wanna say that we're at the point where that's a check we probably can't cash now, due to the blunders of the last five years....I've always wondered how the hell the administration justifies letting China handle North Korea too....it's scary how weak we are now days, especially in the far east...


Oh and to invade us, they'd probably have to lead off with some massive nuclear strikes at the major population areas and a round or two of chemical and/or biological weapons. There's no way anyone would ever be able to take this land with our population intact....The American insurgency would be like nothing ever seen....
