But slim, a much larger force is required to fight a revolution in the first world than in the third world. Where will you get such a force?
As I have said. They cappies wont be as strong as they suppose. The British army has admitted to being overstretched across its battlefields. This is just one example of cappie weakness.

For a first world revolution we have all the resources we need. We can make explosives, grenades, pipe bombs, molotovs, nail bombs, jam jar bombs; we can use knives in their thousands. As for finding people to use those knives:

Revolution will come to the place that is least expected. The governments will take our freedoms and we will take them back. Have faith in the future. It is inevitable.


Third world revolution will be an immediate incentive for the new western forces. We can help them. What chance do peasants have in defeating military dictatorships backed by the USA? If victory were to be won it would be at the cost of millions of unarmed men, women and children. I will not let their blood stain the ground when it can be avoided.

Look at the ratios. A first world country has armies but they are far away. The revolutionaries can be mobile with vehicles and can use mass produced and accesible weapons.

A third world country has armies that watch their own people. They are well fed unlike the rest of the people because they have US. support. They have access to apache gunships that would cause international trouble but nothing compared to an apache at home. Revolutionaries will be starving, weak, homeless, ill-educated, poorly armed (if armed at all) and on foot with no real road system. For those who prefer this method, I would say you would surely fail. Even if you were armed, those around you wouldnt be. You cannot run a one man war, especially when those around you are under fire.
