Edit: I am responding to mars' genocide rant, although I also support gay marriage under the "I don't give a fuck what other people do with themselves" act.
But I am for removing women's right to vote, because that is amusing to me.
I'm sad to continue this thread, and to agree with mars, but I really entirely agree with her. The technology has made actual occupation of a weaker country near impossible
The Cheapness of Ak's and suicide bombing allow countries that may have been subjegated before resist, by hiding its people in the populace. Those people now have a real chance to cause damage, long term, whereas previously the technology would make this much more difficult.
Without Genocide, you have a constant threat to your army. I'm not sure if we underestimated this, but it seems pretty clear now. To occupy a state of this strength, you need to be willing to go all the way or pull out.
