Killing thousands of civilians with two nukes is simply wrong, even if it was meant to spare the lives of the invading and defending soldiers.

War is a thing that should be fought out in the battlezones and not by eraicationg cities.


War is wrong, and weapons are being constructed to be used. And if we as a human race are stupid enough to design weapons wich can wipe us from this planet then we shouldnt be complaining that they are being used. We should have stopped the manufacturing and designing of those weapons on the first place.

War's have been going on since the beginning of recorded history, and the basic principle was always who ever had the best stuff wins (of course). so, things will keep advancing in order to protect ones country. I guess if you look at it, the history of the world is almost one big cold war (rome is a good example). Most wars are stupid. many americans on the homefront didn't feel sympathy for the japenese at the time because of pearl harbor, and a whole gaggle of other things, while many vetrans on the front lines had realized how pointless the war was. in the end we will probably blow each other to smitherines for some stupid reason. probably with nukes too. or, then again, maybe monkeys will come down from outer space and shoot us with there Mango-Rays.

Wishful thinking.  THe true END will come when the Secret of the Marmalade is stolen by subversive elements who disastrously unleash its True Power!  So far, only Ozzy has kept that Most Terrible of Weapons contained!

We may claim, in our never ending grasp for excuses causes, that they already have.

Marmalade?

A Norwegian newspaper once printed that Lutefisk is the Norwegians' attempt at conquering the world. When they discovered that Viking raids didn't give world supremacy, they invented a meal so terrifying, so cruel, that they could scare people to become one's subordinates.
