Americans: Getting Too Fat To Fight

Check out the news in CNN about America getting too fat tofight. In summary of this news, well as you can see it’s already on the title. Twenty years from now, American soldiers or students will probably become obese. In this situation, the military will not be able to accept any more American troops which are obese. The problem is; American people think that being obese is normal.

Okay, forget all these obese and fatty comments to Americans. What is being pointed out here is about “fighting”. What do you think when we say “fighting” and “Americans”? From my own perspective; when I hear “Americans” and “Fighting”, I automatically think about “Technology”. Do you think that this is World War II or Medieval Wars? Before we used to fight using our bare hands and swords, but comparing the technique of fighting right now is completely different.

Japan is one of the most advanced countries when it comes to technology. To what I think, Japanese military are already constructing robots as their alternative soldiers in the upcoming war (if there is) to prevent human casualties. America is allied with Japan. Therefore I conclude that, in whatever aspect we think, Americans can still fight using “technology”. Japan for sure will supply robots to America, as long as they don’t end up fighting for resources.

When it comes to fighting with spears and swords (like Spartans), well I doubt Americans will survive. My conclusion is; “intelligence” most likely will be over “strength”. It’s like swords versus fists. Why swords? It’s because weak (but smart) people invented these. Why fists? It’s because these are what strong people have. By the way, disregard their size and shape.
