It had to be done, Ron. And the Barbarians are at the door again. We have to kill them, and in quantities that make them understand that they will be exterminated if they don't quit their evil ways!
This really is the end-game, Ron. The weapons have been created, and are at-the-ready. I think we'll have to use them again.
There's nothing un-holy about a nuclear bomb, in spite of what the 'Media' have manufactured over the last 50 years. It's just a bigger-bang for the buck, and they sure get the attention of the bad-guys.
It's just my opinion, but I'd rather see 10 million dead Islamaniacs, than lose one more Marine. But then, I've got that 'Patton' attitude - the one that wins wars. Stay well..................FRegards
