The American military couldn't handle rice farmers or goat herders, they sure as fuck can't handle the most armed country in history.

The question is how many people will side with them vs reality.

The American military at the time cared - at least somewhat - about the international reputation of the United States. That may not always be a thing. It may not be a thing now.

The American military would have zero problems massacring an unlimited number of rice farmers and goat herders.

Eh, they killed them by the hundreds of thousands, and were not even trying to genocide them. If the current regime decided to actually just exterminate people our level of technology would make what the Nazis did look like babies playtime.

At least 40% of the population given what we've seen so far.
