But I really fail to see how using JDAMs that obliterate or maim every living thing within 1000m as somehow morally superior. One of the oddest things about war is that there seems a distinction is made between good killing weapons and bad killing weapons. Its all vile as far as I can see. There are good questions in your post and I hope you find answers someday. Paul

"Chemicals and JDAMs same as vile as you can see..." I trust that as a good Canadian you could have gone to war against France, when de Gaule attempted to split your country apart in 68, after you invited him, and he came out of his battleship with the "Vive the Quebec libre!" Had you been in CANCENTCOM then, would you have ordered JDAMs on the French Defence Ministry and Ecole de Guerre (Yes, they do exist!), or clouded the Champs Elysées and St Germain with a toxic substances ?
