IMO this sort of information should not be released into the public.

War is hell, and you do things you have to do. It shouldn’t be coffee table or water cooler talk subject matter.

The New York Times had no filter mechanism. This isn’t released to improve anything. It’s a precursor to trashing ‘our detestable’ actions during the cold war.

Hey, we won it NYT. Get over it!

See Hulka’s post 3. The NYT isn’t reporting anything new. Counter-value and counter-force have been known for decades.

Unfortunately it would seem the days of doing what you have to do in war are behind us. Well behind us.

I disagree. This isn't just about detestable actions from the Cold-War. It is about further reductions in our current nuclear forces. This has been a long term goal of the left and continues.

The Cold Was was won at the close of the Reagan presidency. However I think one could argue that that victory has been squandered away by every administration since then.
