So What DO You Think? Is It Going To Take A &quot;Small&quot; Nuke? Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Talking Afghanistan here. What's it going to take?
At some point will "we" tire of attempting to end resistance in more conventional ways?
One wouldn't think so, but there are is the faction that thought it would take mere days to end the rounding up of Osama followers.
How much more indignant will they be if that option is considered?

Well, U.S. forces lose a half dozen soldiers, and it's "big news" here in the forums.
Though any loss is a bad deal, was it expected there would be zero losses?
I mean, come on. The "Bad Guys" do have weapons of there own, and mountains to hide in.

Yeah. Let's just drop a "small" nuke and move on.

A half dozen soldiers, while a loss and certainly something to mourn, is certainly not grounds for nuking 'because it's easier'. These people are in the military, they know what that means - it means putting their lives on the line. It's their job, this is what they are TRAINED to do.

I'd say that it would be the stupidest possible outlet of thought for this war. Not only are we not fighting a 'nation', not only are the targets to spread out, not only do we not know the location of most of the targets, but the use of nukes would cause international backlash and probably topple any support we may have in the middle east, as well as promote more anti-US terrorist organizations that would/could consider suitcase nuking us.

In other words - diplomatic suicide. Next?

Nuke ?

Afghanistan who is now helping US would sureluy appreciate that.
As others nations through the world ...

Plus a 'small' nuke will be less usefull in a mountain area than the enormous bombs you're using.

Sounds like the US is kicking some major butt. So what if it takes a week or a year. The US suffers more deaths at home during military training. And most deaths have been from accidents or plane wrecks as far as the war over their goes. I think we're doing much better than the Russians ever did.

So it's a bit of sarcasm in the opposite direction? IE - at least we're not nuking??

I don't think there is a problem with criticism. The moment we stop criticizing is the moment standards fall and shortcuts are made without reprocussions. I'd like to be proud of my nation's military. I'd like to be able to say that we fight terrorism with the freedom and democracy that makes the West great...with fair trials in open courts, and flawlessly accurate military strikes against military targets. And then when we get them on trial, and guilty is read, we put them in prison for the rest of their God-foresaken lives. We can't stoop to their level, and I for one won't tolerate it from my government or my nation's military.

We could also make some experiments on them.

All those laser beams you want to use for the ABM thingie, and dont tell me you dont have mutant soldiers.

MTG posted somewhere that you could see live pictures from a satelite or an airplane, when that soldier had fallen from the chopper.
Imagine how much rating a live broadcast of frying up terrorists will get?

I wouldn't cry one bit if the entire middle east got nuked. But I'm sure the nuclear winter and fallout would affect my so . I say we just use crop dusters and spray HIV infected blood over the whole region. Then just let those rabbit birthing Muslims screw themselves into extinction.

And just to show the difference between a sane country like the US and insane one like Israel :
More than hundred Pal armed terrorists are surrounded in Tul-Karem. Do you think that our leadership is looking for ways to liquidate them? No. They are discussing ways of releasing them, to avoid escalation and bloodshed.

LOL

Not all muslims are bad. I'm just being honest. I would rather everyone be honest and say what they really think than just say things to not seem cruel and offensive. I don't think we should annihilate them specifically because they are Muslim. We should annihilate them because they threaten us. And we should annihilate all who threaten us. It's not limited to Muslims. And not all Muslims need to be annihilated. Just the ones that hate us.

Maybe we should liquidate them. I'd vote for Sharon if he were running for president in the US. Too bad he wasn't born here.
