War and Military Strategy
At the Russian Military Academy, a General gave a lecture on 'Potential Problems and Military Strategy'.
At the end of the lecture he asked if there are any questions. An officer stood up and asked: ''Will there be a third world war and will Russia take part in it?'' The general answered both questions in the affirmative. The officer asked: ''Who will be the enemy?'' The General: ''All indications point to Red China.'' The audience is shocked, the officer asks: ''General, we are only 150 million russians, there are 1.5 billion Chinese. We cannot win a war like that at all!'' The General: ''Just think about this. In modern warfare, it's not the quantity that matters but the quality. For example - in the middle east there have been a few wars recently, where 5 million Jews fought against 50 million Arabs. Israel has always prevailed. Israel is always victorious!'' After a small pause the officer asked, "Do we have enough Jews?"
