[extropy-chat] clash of un-civilizations

[c c]

Meant to in passing remark there have been reports & rumors of planned use of small amounts of nuclear material on bunkerbusters, or perhaps that small amounts of nuclear material have already been placed on bunkerbusters and perhaps already used in the field. However i don't care much, don't stay up at night sobbing for al qaeda or SS, kamikaze pilots, khmer rouge or whomever.
Only reason i have any interest is my father was in the Army Air Force from '43- '45, and he sketched a general picture of how intellectuals fight wars in their smoking rooms, High Command makes the decisions, and armed forces obey the orders flowing from those decisions. Military personnel rarely like war because more than obviously it is their posteriors being directed in range of meat mincers


We won't use nukes until and unless some state finally acknowledges
backing the jihad, and unless they use them first.
