WE HAVE THE BEST MILITARY EVER BECAUSE WE HAVE ADVANCED FIGHTERS AND NO ONE ELSE IN THE WORLD HAS A GOOD NAVY AND WE HAVE THE MARINES AND THE COAST GUARD AND EVERYONE IN EUROPE LOVES US SO WE WILL ALWAYS WINS!
And yes, I am American. And yes, this is an opinion, based off of things I have heard many people say.

@GeckoFPS
Chinese navy is as big as ours
China and Russia have both developed 5th generation stealth fighters
China's marines have more people in it than the entire state of Washington and Oklahoma combined.
Europe is actually pretty mad at America because America dragged them into two wars in the middle east.

>Game of extreme manhunt involving the millions of men in our military took 10 years to find one man who was sitting near a major city in Pakistan the whole time, as opposed to being in a cave like almost everyone else thinks he was in |

Stereotypical.
The signature of a forumer is just like the cutie mark of a pony, they're all stupid. |

I am mocking the people who think America's military is the best.
If you people didn't realize that already.

Did you not read how this is an opinion. Opinion = not a fact
And if I was stereotyping American's, I would be stereotyping myself.

The United States easily outclasses Russia and China.
In today's modern military, the number of soldiers doesn't matter as much anymore. It's more the technology that counts.
Russia's military has fallen into a state of disarray and disrepair after the Soviet Union collapsed in the early 90s. China, no matter what the news says, still uses outdated technology as the backbone of their armed forces.
The US has the ability to take out a whole country at any point in time, due to roving strike groups and multiple joint-national bases around the world.
Some little facts I know from living around some pretty prestigious military personnel. 1. The US makes up 2/3 of all NATO forces. 2. The US spends 10x more on its military research and production than any other country. 3. If the US were to cut its Air Force in half, it'd still be the most powerful in the world.
The U.S. Air Force is the most technologically advanced fighting force in the history of the world.
I'd end this discussion with saying, why should we care? Believe it or not, Russia nor China can match the US missile to missile. The UK has cruise missiles that put China and Russia to shame. Any day I'd take western powers over the east. After all, that UK Navy is quite fascinating.

My opinion is:
Our military sucks. We need a Sicilian Mafia to run our military. |

Considering most other countries are filled with poverty, death, and enormous amounts of crime it is kind of obvious U.S. has a great Special Forces out of any other country, |

Did you not read? I said special forces. You obviously didn't know that the US has rescued Iranian fisherman many times from sinking ships and Somalia pirates. Not to mention the US Navy SEALs rescued two hostages about a month ago. |

Which no other country can afford, because they are in poverty.
I can't believe we can afford it, with our debt to China. |

"In today's modern military, the number of soldiers doesn't matter as much anymore. It's more the technology that counts." So you are saying that 300 thousand American's could hold off the Chinese military, with fairly modern weaponry and near a million people attacking them?
"Russia's military has fallen into a state of disarray and disrepair after the Soviet Union collapsed in the early 90s. China, no matter what the news says, still uses outdated technology as the backbone of their armed forces." And yet they have 5th generation stealth fighters. Hmmm.
"The US has the ability to take out a whole country at any point in time, due to roving strike groups and multiple joint-national bases around the world." It took us 10 years to hunt down and kill a single person. We are still getting killed by towel heads with AK-47s, proves that you don't need to be advanced to kill.
"Some little facts I know from living around some pretty prestigious military personnel. 1. The US makes up 2/3 of all NATO forces. 2. The US spends 10x more on its military research and production than any other country. 3. If the US were to cut its Air Force in half, it'd still be the most powerful in the world. "
So Russia + China's + Some middle eastern countries with fairly advanced fighters would die from a handful of assorted planes such as the F/A-18 super hornet? The new model SU-47 stealth fighter made in Russia even puts the F-22 to shame.
"The U.S. Air Force is the most technologically advanced fighting force in the history of the world." Not anymore. China's stealth fighter goes faster, and steers easier than the F-22 and the F-35.
"I'd end this discussion with saying, why should we care? Believe it or not, Russia nor China can match the US missile to missile. The UK has cruise missiles that put China and Russia to shame. Any day I'd take western powers over the east. After all, that UK Navy is quite fascinating." Because we would win an entire world war with just a navy and missiles.

"US has best special forces" Oh god no. Almost every country in the world has ranked the Norwegian special forces to be the best in the world.

| I'm pretty sure other countries would have taken just as long. You can just simply send a drone out and find someone. Chances are, Osama moved quite often. You never know why it would have taken that long. After all, finding one particular person in an entire country isn't easy. |

US has already said he was there for more than a year.
And like I said, we are still getting killed every day by terrorists with AK-47's. I am not saying I hate the military, my cousin is in the Marines, but I just hate it when people think we are "the best"
