One retired general who participated in the generals revolt against Donald Rumsfelds handling of the Iraq war said (snip)... We dont want to take another initiative unless weve really thought through the consequences of our strategy, he warned.<<< If this guy is so far out of the loop that he thinks we haven't thought through why we have:
a) 3 carrier groups, with a 4th possible,
b) two Marine Expeditionary Units (6,000 troops and 6 or 8 ships each),
c) A wing of B-1 Lancer bombers redeployed from DG to Qatar
- all this in the Persian Gulf....
then its a damn good thing he's retired!! Obviously no one is talking to him because he's a....loser!

"No one has done much thinking about what might happen if you exploded a nuclear weapon in the upper atmosphere," added the officer. "It's probably something people should look at." Radiation in the jet stream, potentially polluting the upper atmosphere?
Revelation 8:11: And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.
The Lord is coming soon...

A possible scenario. I always envisioned that particular verse portraying one of these Russian/Chinese nuclear powered satellites of questionable design re-entering earth's atmosphere after falling out of orbit.
Nevertheless, nasty stuff.
