>I'm not saying we should make an effort to go all Israel and build an army worthy of Mordor

Take back your insult to Israelis! Mordor lost.

>there's no shame in simply admitting we are weak and depend on our diplomacy to survive.

Not true. You're an American protectorate.



> Take back your insult to Israelis! Mordor lost.

It's not an insult. Mordor only lost because they depended on the power of the ring to unite their armies. Only when it was destroyed their armies fell into chaos. If it were up to the military power of Mordor Middle-Earth would surely have fallen.

> Not true. You're an American protectorate.

The whole idea of being a protectorate is that you're weak and are depending on your allies to survive, which is exactly what I'm saying.

Fair enough.

There's also the fact that Mordor was evil.

You're saying Israel's military is not good enough for an evil power? I didn't know alignments had strength requirements.


I'm saying Israel is Chaotic Good.
