Nice point. I guess if Sun Tzu had known about nukes his book would've been a few chapters shorter.

War is war--when you deal with the underlying strategy, the tactics follow. Weapons are tactical matters; war is strategic.

Arguably, Sun Tzu is probably right. What we needed was a strong CIA, the ability to hire 'criminal' foreigners, and the mandate to assassinate foreign leaders that threaten the US. Lacking those things, the only thing left in our quiver is war.
