But this would have to be a massive undertaking, one that would take years of planning and hundreds of thousands of men, (all the while the US clueless to the massive build up around them) and for what? Plus the US is inhabitated like no other country I can think of, the population is so spread out, you would always be outflanked, with a standing army in every state, I cant see any scenerio where this works.
Living off the land is very dangerous. The bigger your force, the hungerier and thirstier it will be. There will be no fuel for your vehicles. There will be no medicine for your wounded. There will be no ammunition for your guns. After that, it's just a matter of time until you're surrounded and crushed, probably by gun-toting rednecks like me.
