I get the impression that Rumsfeld gets a hard-on when he thinks about exploding a nuclear bomb over some city. He was about 10 when the bombs blew over Japan and he's probably wanted to repeat the rush ever since. When told of a Soviet doomsday machine which will trigger nuclear explosions designed to destroy the world, General Turgidson (George C. Scott) whispers to a confidant "Gee, I wish we had one of them doomsday machine things," parodying those generals who never saw a weapon they didn't want to use.

Dear Baldeagle: Ok, here's the strategy. We put up a blockade completely around Bagdad. We then drop leaflets announcing to the populance that we intend to utilize a tactical nuke on Bagdad on such and such a day and offer safe passage for all that come out through our inspected gates. IF Saddam comes out, we can call off the strike, if he doesnt, well then everyone who wishes to escape can. Those left behind, we incinerate. How's that sound? No muss, no fuss, short war. jdn
