different situations completely the vietcong was an established miltary force as was the mujahideen long before the invasion by the US and by the russians in Afghanistan .
to fund one completely from scratch is a completely different matter i have no doubt money would be pumped into the Czech republic to try and help them hold for as long as possible or fight the invasion of all together but once it fell . its too late . i think we can all agree even @snejdarek that the czech republic in its current state wouldnt last long unless NATO was able to deploy in time but taking NATO out of the situation they wouldnt stand a chance of lasting anymore than a few days .
what was stopping hitler doing it was our navy . we still held a strong naval supremacy in the channel as well as an airforce . so yes i agree in a way but disagree in another .we lost the majority of our kit in dunkirk as well but we turned dunkirk into one of the greatest moral victories this country has ever had . it installed a will to survive in this country the like of which i doubt we will ever see again . the entire country came together . with help from others including yourselves were able to go on to completely rebuild and fight off the most advanced and if not certainly one of the largest airforces in the world in that day .
we could of simply surrendered in that moment but we didnt . czech republic on the other hand gave up without really any fight at all .
we have been invaded many times to be fair . not in the modern age however .
what are they going to shoot them down with ? i dont believe they are legally allowed to own AA and AT ?
depends on the aircraft an Apache for example can engage you long before you see or hear it so can alot of modern attack aircraft . so unless you are saying the insurgents now have advanced radar there not really any threat to the air .
taliban have maybe shot down a dozen aircraft the entire war .
i agree but read my point again . if timed right the people can quickly turn against their liberators
