I Am Moving To North Korea

[Almighty Colin]

It's amazing how fast the US has moved forward and embraced technological innovations in it's military. I saw a remotely controlled armored vehicle on tv a few days ago. There is a new class of drones that are launched from what is basically a giant slingshot (no runway needed). I would think there will be battles fought in the next few decades between a US mechanical army (no soldiers) and an old fashioned flesh force. That seems to be the goal of the US military. To be able to wage wars with zero causalties. How many soldiers deaths were there in the Gulf War or in Afghanistan?
148 official "battle deaths" in the Gulf War - with an army of 500,000 on the ground there. The American public has a very low tolerance for soldier deaths right now.

It is easier to make the decision to wage wars when none of your soldiers will be wounded. What will this mean for us?
