and no regime is immune from being toppled. history shows at the right place and time even the most despotic regime can collapse.

solders and cops aren't robots. many of them hate the regime as well and eventually give in and join the other side, as is happening in egypt now.

like i said, know your history.

as an aside, it's times like this that shows what the conspiracy propaganda that people eat up really is: a government psy-op to make one feel powerless in the face of a supposedly invincible government.

The OP asked if they could or would, I said yes.

At no time did I discuss the importance of the internet or what the people would do without it.

Move on.



Anyone could topple if the stars aligned, but the USA will not get toppled by the people.




I guess you don't really comprehend how large our police force, National Guard and military really is, on a national scale. There will ALWAYS be those who will switch sides, but there will be more who follow orders when it comes time to restore order.




I know my history, but more importantly, I also know the present. The American people are not going to do shit. And any small pockets who do act up will be dealt with.

Never in history has a nations law enforcement / military been so advanced while its people so dumbed down, out of shape, unarmed, uneducated, and unmotivated. If there is ever any sort of a revolution in the USA, the majority of the people will watch it on TV.





Have you even ever been part of or in the middle of any large scale riot or political uprising? The answer is no, so keep reading on the internet and thinking you're smart and know what will happen, because I can assure you the American people no longer have what it takes to overthrow the US Government. It ain't gonna happen in our lifetime at least.

To think Americans could do what Egypt just did is laughable. Not these days. Americans can hardly even peacefully protest anymore without getting arrested in the process. Any real sight of a massive uprising on a national scale would be crushed quickly.

And the sad part is, their rights will continue to be stripped away, unemployment could rise to 25%, the USD could totally collapse, and they still would not act on a national level in the manner Egypt just did. You have a nation of worker bees and zombies who will do what they are told and sleep out for the latest iPhone while going in debt to buy it.

However, I'd love to be proven wrong on this and see all hell break lose to get some things back in line and remind the government who works for who. But I know I'll never see it in my lifetime.

OK, here is where I will agree with you. If you were discussing a developing nation or some 3rd world shit pot, you are 100% correct. It can be done and sometimes is. I've seen it with my own eyes.

I've been in the middle of three large scale riots (foolishly taking photos) and I've been there to watch the people change their government, and I've seen them fail.

1) Venezuela 2002
2) Thailand 2006
3) Thailand 2010

It is absolute fucking chaos. But such a thing is to be expected in those types of countries. It is expected when you have a class of people so poor that they have nothing to lose. But he United States of America? No way. That sort of rebellion has been bred of the people, but even if some did get a bright idea or it even looked like some group might get out of line, they would go down like the Branch Davidians in Waco. And you see how well that worked out.

Is it possible to write an iphone app that can act as an internet repeater? Imaging A wants to send a message to C and it goes: A<->B<->C where B is just a repeater. This would have to work without cell towers ie: peer to peer internet.

Hmmm...

I'm no fan of Middle Eastern men, but Egypt's not that bad to visit. Go in to see what you want to see, hang out a bit and move on. It's dirtier than you think it would be, but the Muslims there are not as bad as you'd think.

LOL You would say that. Egypt is a very modern country and aside from what racist bigots would have you believe, a very good place to visit.

Millions of tourists go to Egypt every year with no problem and have a great time.

The only real extremist country left in the Middle East is Israel, and they soon too will fall victim to their corrupt and genocidal government.

When the USA is filled with people like that, you'll get your revolution. Don't know if they will succeed or not, but they'll give it a shot.

The vast majority of the US military arms are F-16 jets and I highly doubt they are used for crowd control. The majority of that $1 billion in aid goes to farm and agriculture products monitored by corporations. Also, they don't have any oil. There is no comparison to Sadam accept maybe the same skin color.

The only fact in your post is there are ignorant people from the Netherlands.
