Even in conflict areas like Iraq and Afghanistan, there is no shortage of US/allied superior military might, and yet they continue to fight, seemingly undeterred.

For this reason, I am not convinced that a show of military might is the be all, end-all when it comes to deterring those who have an agenda against our way of life.
So you're saying if someone with superior firepower came in to invade the US you would just give up without a fight?

These are people fighting at home against foreigners that came and murdered their families. Don't pretend like they are nut cases, you and I would be doing the same thing should some foreign entity come in and kill our families and threaten our way of life.
