Our problem as always goes back to the fact that we
never used those weapons again, had we used them
in Korea, there would be no doubting our resolve.
Now? It’s a different story.

tet, my friend, I hope you are doing well.
Cold weather is behind us, and soon we will be
complaining about the heat, gnats, and mosquitoes.

Like you, I wonder about the use of our nukes.
I advocated nuking tora-bora as a signal to the world.
Sometimes I think the “threat” and the “fear”
is greater than the reality.
Hiroshima and Nagasaki are both thriving cities today.
I wish we could discuss this over a cold one.

The world saw that U.S. did not nuke Ghazni on 12Sep2001; thus, the world can be confident that the U.S. will nuke no one.

Agreed. Sadly, in both the Korean and Vietnam conflicts the commanding generals frequently begged Washington to unleash the nukes. Of course, to no avail.
