The idea that Joe Deer Hunter could band together with his buddies and resist the U.S. military (or any modern military) is a fantasy of state militia groups and people who watched Red Dawn one too many times.

huh?
this has been the MO of most recent hostilities in afghanistan, iraq, somalia, vietnam etc. what makes you think mississippi would be different?

I'm confused. You see no difference between an Afghan resistance fueled by American military weaponry, and a resistance by deerhunters in Mississippi, unaided by any foreign government and unaided by modern military hardware.
Also, we may disagree on what counts as successful resistance. I haven't looked up the numbers, but I'm sure that opposition forces in Aghanistan and Vietnam suffered casualties that were 20-30 times as high as American and Soviet casualties.
