    It certainly would if we used the American war model in Kuwait.

    The first modern war ever to turn in a profit.

    I think our size might prove a logistical handicap though

    Here's a joke for ya...
    Paddy rings President Medvedev of Russia and says, "see you's Russians, u'd better get out of Chechyna, cos we're gonna invade u."

    Medvedev says, "ah, Paddy, ur gonna invade us. How many troops have u got?"

    Paddy says, "let me see now...I think I can round up about 100, so u better watch out."

    Medvedev says, "In Russia we have six million troops. How many tanks have u got?"

    Paddy says, "wait till I see now...we have a second hand one we bought of the Brits a wee while ago, it's a bit rusty, but starts on the botton."

    Medvedev says, "In Russia we have 30,000 tanks."

    Paddy says, "I'll ring u back."

    Five minutes later, Paddy rings Medvedev, and says, "see you's Russians, we've decided not to invade u"

    Medvedev says, "Ah, Russia is too strong for you?"

    Paddy says, "Not at all. We've just no place to put six million prisoners and 30,000 tanks!!

    So Ireland didn't invade the world's biggest country. But it did invade the second biggest, Canada. Well, sort of. Fenian Brotherhood - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    because they started it, as well as paying retribution to Belgium etc. for fookin up their country they also have to cover some of the allies costs for waging war on germany.

    I wonder when they'll finish paying for WWII
