Well, i think it's basically cheating. People shouldn't be allowed to do this, because it's unfair and puts civilians lives at risk. If you don't wear a uniform and fight in a war you need to be punished somehow. I don't like it because it means that the USSR and US lost so many wars in the Middle East. It's not fair and not right, our taxpayers aren't paying this money to lose!

Imagine if you went into a pay to win game and paid money but still lost. This is the same bullshit

He's got a point you know. If we have this massive technological advantage but can't win because the enemy isn't playing by the rules.. what do we do?


They have to be punished somehow, you dont let people play monopoly and then steal money from the bank
>>
>>33312593
Ignore the rules too

That is exactly how it works in the real world. Stop assuming that the real world is a game with rigid rulesets.
>>
>>33312481
>>33312593

These colonists aren't standing in formation and engaging in battle! That fool Washington dared to initiate combat in the winter! They're not playing by the rules!
>>
>>33312604
But we can't ignore the rules, we have accountability

>>33312605
The real world has rigid rulesets and laws

Warfare is about honor and rules, and chivalry.

Which are broken continually, resulting in only minor consequences for the worst offenders.

B8 more subtly.

>>33312639
ISAF soldiers are legally prosecuted for breaking Rules of Engagement just so you know

>>33312648
You do realize there are things called the Geneva convention right?

In wars between clothed personnel things like accepting the surrenders of POWs, treateing them fairly, not shooting civilians, not shooting medical personnel etc all fall under that banner

being an edgelord or a terrorist is not the same as a soldier, a soldier is a noble man
>>
>>33312660
>ISAF soldiers
Wow, they really are solving war crime by punishing people following orders huh. I bet that solves trillions of dollars of white collar crime and blood diamonds in africa.

Grow up kid.
>>
>>33312481
basically just described terrorism?
>>
>>33312481
Yes I agree Op!

And it should be a mandatory death penalty
that should convince those insurgents not to fight!

The Bank NEVER loses my friend

If terrorism is so strong, why aren't we doing it as well?

I say we should build a terrorist army.

Lot cheaper and effective.

Geneva convention is for POWs and other non-combatants the Hague convention are the rules of warfare

We been playing the rules since 2002 and we pretty much had won nothing yet. Even the rules now are increasing thanks to liberal shell humanitarian organizations.

Nigga this thing should really be done...

well there is a counter, but you have to kill everyone else in the country as well
>>
>>33312887
Who is ISIS?
>>
It is a war crime to fight without uniform, and as such, insurgents aren't protected under the Geneva convention.
>>
When the leaders of a state declare war on an other state - or hell, even on just a person like Osama - they send their state sanctioned, uniformed, regular army after you (and probably some mercenaries too these days).

When the people of a country have had enough of your shit, they will fight you as guerrillas and irregular forces. If you don't want to face insurgencies or partisans, then don't piss off groups of regular people. *shrug*
>>
>>33313364
But this raises the question of how to avoid angering a group of "normal" people like Muslims when they are perpetually angry

>If you don't wear a uniform and fight in a war
But many do actually wear uniforms of some kind anyway. Look at ISIS or FARC, they love wearing uniforms. Even the French Resistance had their berets!

The problem is, foreign soldiers entering an area and being unfamiliar with the culture, so not being able to pick up on the clues of what's unusual in the way someone is dressing, walking, talking, etc. especially if they're not carrying an AK or RPG at that exact moment in time.

Just imagine a Pashtun being magically transported to Germany, they wouldn't know the telltale signs of an Antifa guy on the way to a protest either.

Whereas wars between naked personnel are just gay.

We can't/don't win, because we're not fighting a
war, dumbass.

>>33312481
>guerilla armies should be illegal

If only Castro's army in Cuba was illegal, amirite?
>>
>>33312481
This happens to be my area of expertise.
Firstly, guerilla/insurgency/asymmetrical warfare is the most common type of conflict throughout world History.
The USA would not exist without insurgency warfare (utilized by the colonial americans).
You may as well be arguing for each side to have a 1 on 1 duel with champions to decide the victor.
>>
>>33312481
This is obvious bait.
>>
>>33312593
the easiest way to overcome an opponent in 4th gen warfare is just killing them all, but we can't do that anymore
>>
>>33312481
Good bait, or youre a sweet summerchild
