Thank you for your learned response. Who exactly would have enacted "armed revolution in the streets"?

What is the POINT of having nukes if the country's enemies, or those that support murderous terrorists, do not fear them? The (former) USSR never killed 3,000 of our people, nor did China, or even Castro. Castro was willing to use nukes against us during the missile crisis, but condemns terrorism. Go figure.

You have to think, and act, fast - not to mention ruthlessly. Afghanistan would have been the perfect place to make an example of, and we blew it. Nobody would have done anything had we nuked them and denied it - I guarantee it! :thumbsup:
