New Or is it?
a sane person 'might' want to have a policy
of no first use of nuclear weapons
and then would have no need to 'plan' using them

using nukes against _______
would start legitimizing nuke attacks

that could get out of hand quick

New and remember, we get a free pass
We're America. We're not bound by the standards by which lesser people are judged. For example: September 1983, USSR downs Korean Air Flight 747, killing all aboard. Act of international barbarism. July 1988, USA downs Iran Air Flight 655, killing all aboard. Regrettable accident and furthermore it was their own damn fault (some interesting background [link|http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Iran+airliner+1986+aegis+frigate&btnG=Google+Search|here]). Nuke Iran? If the President ordains it, it is right and proper. Of course, he'll still scream bloody murder if the Iranians use their new antiship missiles (based on Russian technology, and apparently to the fabled French Exocet "as an F-22 is to a Spitfire") to go turkey-shooting at such fleet assets as we may have left unwisely sitting in the Gulf.

cordially,
Die Welt ist alles, was der Fall ist.

Imric's Tips for Living
  • Paranoia Is a Survival Trait
  • Pessimists are never disappointed - but sometimes, if they are very lucky, they can be pleasantly surprised...
  • Even though everyone is out to get you, it doesn't matter unless you let them win.


Nothing is as simple as it seems in the beginning,
As hopeless as it seems in the middle,
Or as finished as it seems in the end.
