Quite right my friend.  Joe Biden keeps harping on the fact he has F-15s and we do not, but that didn't help them in Afghanistan, now did it?  They were repulsed by an inferior enemy combatant population armed with small arms like AK-47s that were determined to win at any cost.  

The People of the United States reserve the same capacity to defend themselves in a similar fashion.  The Government can drop all the bombs it wants, but it will only destroy the infrastructure they wish to control.  It's people on the ground that matter.  You would think they would have learned this by now, which only makes their protestations to the contrary all the more dubious and disingenuous.

Those in power have learned this. The point is to convince the people of the falsehood that resistance is futile when dealing with a better armed opponent so that they never attempt a revolt.
