#4 And I believe them.

If I'd wrote it, it would be believable with or without the /sarc tag. g(r)omgoru tends toward overly cynical rather than naive, in my experience.

#5 Here at the 'burg, the sarc tags are implicit.

Given that we have evolved the Harpoon from its original anti-ship role into a land attack version (SLAM), it obviously can be done. I suspect the Pak denial lies more in the details than the act itself.
