[QUOTE="RDKirk, post: 71647758, member: 326155"] The military is not going to be the lead in that effort. The ethic in the American military against mutiny is extremely strong. They are very deeply indoctrinated against it. Generals will resign or retire first (and [B]that[/B] ought to be a signal, as when all the generals of the "class of Vietnam" retired prior to the invasion of Iraq). They are aware that "military coup" is like virginity lost. Even if civilian control is later regained, when generals have done it once, everyone is aware they might do it again. [/QUOTE]
