I always thought so too. After all why waste a perfectly good neutron weapon? We would have been stupid to really decommission everything we agreed to.

The only problem with that is some liberal squeal bag who would run to the press with any such fact. I still think we keep some of them somehow.

I still can't understand why we did not use a nuke after 9-11. Set an example of our desire to be ruthless to protect our own would have been the best thing to show the islamic countries what hell would be like.

After all that is all they understand.. raw power and the will to us it. Any who argue that just need to look at the countries there. That is how they stay in power or gain power.

Good morning.
"The only problem with that is some liberal squeal bag who would run to the press with any such fact. I still think we keep some of them somehow."

Maybe we disassembled them and buried the parts in the desert, like Saddam did.

First of all I hate to say it 911 wasn't worthy of a nuclear response given the savagery of today's world. The only event in which we will be able to justify that will be an in kind response to a similar event on our soil.

Set an example of our desire to be ruthless to protect our own....

But we're not ruthless and our politicians will never allow us to be cast in such a light on the world stage.

Remember the Keven Costner film The Untouchables? Keven Costner is asked what he is prepared to do to GET CAPONE? And he stutters everything within the law yada yada yada and the Connery character says: And then what are you prepared to do? If Capone's men pulls a knife, you pull a gun. If he sends one of your men to the hospital, you send one of his to the MORGUE. That's the Chicago way.

That's the way we have to be to beat the Jihadis. I only hope and pray that our politicians realize this before it's too late.
