#1 Like a lot of people I responded to the neolithic behaivor in Fajullah by saying "just nuke the motherf*****s". Then more sane and rational thoughts set in. The djini is out of the bottle as far as nukes are concerned, they can't be uninvented. But that does not we sould be reduced to responding with just city busters if it ever came to that (although we do need to keep some of those too, I can think of a couple of targets off the top of my head). In the WoT the main problem is the enemy is so easily hid. Any government that supports terroists today is going to do everything it can to stay out of the crosshairs. I like the idea of converting the MX peacekeepers to conventional warheads, but even thirty minutes might not be enough lead time for a really high value target

#2 It's not that I dislike the idea of a Nuclear Exchange, it's just that Armageddon need's a better PR firm. Sell it to me.
