OOopsie. Post nearly done. Spastic click back-space lost it. Grrr... and you'd have loved it for all the compliments among the exposition on cognitive development of humans = a work in progress, far from complete. Can't repeat. But yes, analogies only give an idea of something. They are never accurately applicable. They are often great traps. "Hey, look how good tank Blitzkrieg was - let's do the same". Arrgghh.... incoming fancy electronic rockets carried by a bloke destroying tanks easy-peasy, at low cost and low risk. Careful that you don't talk yourself into MAD. Looks like that's the way you're going. Telling yourself that Russia won't go MAD is quite different from what Russians are telling themselves. I'd have gone MAD long ago in their position - nip it in the bud before great carnage. Putin is much more reasonable than I am, but then, I have the luxury of being an internet commentator, not having to make actual decisions which would make me much more circumspect. The NATO freakoids have already gone full scale deflection on Russia, so Russia has nothing left to lose. Might as well go neutron. Just as I bear no animus to current Japanese or Germans, [the nasty ones aside], people will soon get over Russia neutroning Americans in Ukraine, along with any other NATO/other belligerents occupying Russian territory in Kherson etc. Yeah, yeah, I know you think Kherson isn't part of Russia. Some think Hawaii isn't part of USA. And that the Eskimos and Sioux, Cherokee, whatnot got a bad deal and unreasonable attacks on their property. But unlike the Hawaiians, the people of Kherson voted to rejoin Russia and not be murdered by Kievan Azovs. A neutron bomb high in the sky, maybe over American troops who have invaded Syria, or maybe over Americans in warships lurking near Russia, or maybe over, say, Pearl Harbour, or maybe just to clear invaders out of Kherson, would certainly be food for thought. USA would have to think more carefully about the meaning of life and what to do next. As Mike Tyson said, everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth. As military people say, everyone has a plan until first contact with the enemy. How about polonium 210 in White House tea? When fighting gets going, all sorts can and will happen. Best to get along and find ways to co-operate rather than conflict. Bossing and conquering other people was normal in the 19th and 18th century. Not so good now. Contrary to what unintelligent morons with little knowledge think, Russia did not start the Ukraine problems in 2022. Being a wise, sagacious, knowledgeable intelligentsia, you would know we need to go back to Peace Prize Great Colour Obama, Biden, Nuland and the Kievan coup, and earlier, to get an inking of why Putin and advisers thought it a good idea to drive tanks towards Kiev and into Kherson. Mqurice PS: I've just realized you are probably also very handsome, a great specimen of manhood, as well as vastly intelligent and perspicacious. That's an even more dangerous trap for you because people will cast themselves at your feet and you'll believe any bullshit you spout because they'll swoon in adulation no matter what. Heard of hubris? Now, about the 1812 Overture.... Charge of Light Brigade... Barbarossa....Stockholm Syndrome..
