RL,
Bin Laden is not crazy or maybe crazy like a fox. The leadership does not believe in 72 virgins or whatever bullshit they feed their disciples. And clean small nukes would not pose that much of a hazard as to the rest of afghanistan much less Asia.
Threatening the use of nukes prevents the use of nukes or at least it worked that way with the soviets.
Here is my hypothetical question for you. What if a small nuke is detonated by bin laden in NY killing 500,000? or small pox?? What should we do then? WILL SOMEONE ANSWER THAT QUESTION WHICH I HAVE POSED IN MANY FORMS OVER THE PAST TWO DAYS. You guys will go to your graves debating the morality of weaponry. I want to DETER them and SAVE you. Tell the somalis, the iraqis et al what will come and watch them scurry to reign it in. mike
