Wed ****ing dominate the UK, keep it to USMC vs the whole British military

if china changed their currency value to the standerd of around a dollar, they would be the biggest and best equiped army in the world


in say 20 years if chine keeps its currency low value they'll still be richer than america

economy wins wars not troop numbers, even tho china has a bigger army

economy = cash, cash = techology, technology = less troops to do the same job, = less troops for the job = more and better equiped units

its a fact economy wins wars look up history take for example WWII germans had a shit economy after WWI but built it up for WWII they invaded countrys took their riches and factorys the more countrys they invaded the more money they had to burn, more money = better equipment ect

the economy cycle happens in every war


america is on top for now but in a few years you wont be china russia south korea japan tailand all have economy riseing faster than the us, china and south korea have more technological weapons, they supply the US

but china is the only country that will take over the US any time soon

I agree but if China attempted that then I think USA and Britain would join sides (they already are on the same side) and go to war against china if they attempted anything silly like an invasion

So what, you have a branch that's bigger than a country. My friend has a dog that's bigger than cats but is shit scared of them. Size has nothing to do with it. You have a big army because you have a big country. We have a small army because we have a small country. Your army will cover your country as much as our army will cover out country. See what I am saying?

Which country has pulled out of Iraq? Britain. Which country is still in Iraq? America. Yeah, so much for us "liberals".


I don't go to school thanks. I'm a big boy.

Actually, Russia was the country we needed. We were holding of Germany just fine, but with Russia we would have ended the war quicker. Russia was the key player in WW2. If Germany got it, everyone would have been ****ed, anally. We didn't need you. Like I said, you helped speed the process up. Germany was already falling. Slowly, but falling.



So what about Vietnam? Does that not exist to you because you didn't win. Stop talking complete bullshit about how you haven't lost wars when you have lost many.

Seminole Wars 1, 2 & 3
Vietnam War
The Korean War
The War of 1812
Red Cloud's War

I count 7. Again, do you not learn about wars you don't win?



So ****ing what. Stop talking about the size of your pathetic army. So ****ing what you have a bigger army. You have a bigger army because you have a bigger ****ing country. China have 2.25 million men with 1.2 million reserve. India have 1.4 million with 1.8 million reserve. North Korea have 1.1 million and 4.7 million reserve. Russia have 1 million with 2.4 million reserve. USA have 1.4 and 1.4 so where the **** you got "145 million" and Britains "29 million" from I have no idea. Hell, NK is smaller than you, but they have more men than you, yet you all seem to want to go to war with them. If size matters, you wouldn't want to go to war.




Erm, yes it does. If I was to form an army right now, would it mean that I could kick the USMC's ass? No. Why? Because they have more experience than my army would, just like the SAS have more than you and our army has more experience than yours. you really are stupid.



I can guaran-damn-tee that you haven't either. For you to say how they operate and how they fight is illogical and not believable.

And a quick FYI to the people who brought up the Revolutionary war, America still didn't win, Britain did. America was not formed until after the victory, so therefore America didn't exist and neither did Americans. It was Britain on Britain, well, technically Britain, Spain, France and the Dutch on Britain. So without us "ignorant ass" you wouldn't be here today. Your welcome.

Looking at the thread title, "United States Marine Corps vs. Entire British Military" it seems like this thread was created to show hate and despite against the Brits in an attempt to feel good about yourself.

I hadn't expected anything like this from you, H₂O. I am guessing you were a victim to some sort of unfair use, or abuse of something considered unfair while playing PlayStation yesterday by a Brit, which lead to a fight, which made you want to go online and show despite against your own ancestors?

We are on the same side. We both lose wars. We both have great armies. We both have way too many people that die because politics is all about money.

aww did I touch a nerve with a yank oh well you can't escape the truth bitch

Ah Americans will never understand humour.

I have to go with the British because I support my own country. But to be honest from the stats above this would be a good fight and in the end it would come down to who has the superior training but I know absolutely nothing on that topic so yer I'm going to sit back and watch everyone else fight this out.

Just out of interest and to put an end to this who designed the Barrett 50 .cal argument I decided to have a look at the wiki article and I found this check the first sentence and it's still on wikipedia right now:

Barrett Firearms Manufacturing was founded by Ronnie Barrett for the single purpose of raping terroists. it owns in cod4 i love this weapon 12.7×99mm NATO (.50 BMG) ammunition, originally developed for and used in M2 Browning machine guns. Barrett began his work in the early 1980s and the first working rifles were available in 1982, hence the designation M82. Barrett designed every single part of the weapon personally and then went on to market the weapon and mass produce it out of his own pocket. He continued to develop his rifle through the 1980s, and developed the improved M82A1 rifle by 1986.

Are you kidding me? I hope all you Americans are still proud of your country when you lose miserably.
