How can you criticise an approach that have never even been tried? The approach is the proactive destruction of all enemies of Western Civilization. You know what this means. I know you do.

Sure I know what this means. Launching pre-emptive nuclear strikes against all our enemies weaker than us--namely the rogue states of Communist China, Iran, Syria, Libya, and some would say Iraq. Nuking our enemies is not the way that God would have us go. Nuclear weapons are indiscriminate. You cannot annihilate entire civilizations and their innocent populations and hope to still be saved in the Kingdom of our God. This is the madness that the Bushies are now preaching. Even as they dismantle virtually our entire strategic nuclear deterent and de-alert most of what's left to make the world safe for a nuclear first strike on the US by the superior offensive and defensive nuclear forces of the Russian Federation, the Bushies want to build and deploy micronukes which they hope to use against rogue states.

While I have no problem with this idea in theory as long as it is confined to purely military targets, using tacnukes against our enemies would merely serve to guarantee that they are used against us beginning with our tens of thousands of troops (and ships) stationed abroad occupying countries and regions whose populations rightly view them as occupying armies. We almost tried this before when we began implementing the Morgonthau Plan whose goal was to so deindustrialize post-war Germany as to reduce them to an agricultural subsistence level which was intended to result in the deaths of two thirds of the German population or the planned murder by starvation of 40 million lives. That would have made Churchill and Truman worse than Hitler and Stalin and almost as bad as the greatest mass murderer of all time the Satanic disciple himself, Mao Tse Tung. We must always remmber you cannot fight evil with evil.

I agree with you. Whoever was promoting this "annihilation" theory is obviously a couple marbles short of sanity, not to mention human decency. When it comes to war, I would say that the Catholic Church's Just War Doctrine sums up my views on war very well, even though I am not even Catholic. If war is necessary it must be justified, and when war is waged, it must be waged as ethically as possible, which in most cases means differentiating between the government and its civilians. Many times innocent civilians are held captive by the few powerful elite who run the entire government and should not be held responsible for the tyrannous actions of a few.
