You're army right? From the sounds of things, it appears we'll be mostly doing airstrikes and bombing runs and not putting troops on the ground.Originally Posted by EpyonNext
Also, an island would be the best place to defend from a zombie invasion. Unless the rewrite the book on zombies again (last time it was to allow them to run even though they shouldn't have the muscle control), they can't swim. It would also be harder for them to detect you way out there.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
I consider World War Z(the Book) to be a bible on how Zombies act. Those Zombies travel in herds numbering in the millions on the ocean floor and regularly walk up on land. I say no to Islands.
And yes, I am in the Army. I'm just expecting the worst at this point. A slow creeping escalation to fullscale war in the region.
A book from 2006 can't be the definitive word on how zombies behave. Looking at it from a physiological and sociological standpoint, herd-minded zombies who can run/swim is a preposterous concept. Even if they were single-mindedly pursuing prey on an island, they would stumble over each other and bottleneck in the trenches and crevasses in the ocean floor.
You're probably right though... US military action in Syria might lead to tension and escalation with Russia and other allies of the regime.
