That may seem light years away from the macabre logic of an American Army major who, straight-faced, told Peter Arnett, one of the leading correspondents of the Vietnam War, after US forces had reduced the Mekong Delta town of Ben Tre to smoldering ruins during the Viet Cong’s Tet offensive in 1967: “It became necessary to destroy the town to save it.”

Seems to me the entire article was probably written as window dressing for above sentence. </sarcasm>

I have actually reviewed a version of this kind of system recently. The technological ability to use non-lethal force is a key demand of CinCs in all theaters. The world continues to change before our very eyes. The so-called low intensity war has just begun.

What a waste of time. The gov should just give each soldier 5 shots each of which can burst an internal organ or 5. That's what a real microwave gun would do.
