asymetric warfare

What would be sensible strategies/weapons for a middle-ranking
country to employ if it thought it is likely to be involved in a war
against the USA or other Western countries, say in the next 10
years?

Well, it could slip a few million dollars to a charismatic religious
leader to carry out terrorist attacks on New York City.

It could also develop weapons of mass destruciton, or pretend to be
doing so.

And it could buy billions of dollars of weaponry and associated
materials from France, Germany, and Russia, so as to keep those
countries in its pocket.

And it could end up ****ing the Americans off to the point where they
launch an invasion, kick the crap out of its army, seize control of
the country, and end up dragging its leader out of a hole in the
ground. So the above doesn't seem to have been exactly a winning
strategy :P
