In the closing days of World War II, the brightest minds in the military estimated that, since the Japanese refused to surrender, invasion of the Japanese islands was the only alternative, and it was estimated that upwards of 3,000,000 Americans would loose their lives during that part of the conflict – so the loss of life of an intractable enemy was of minor consequence.
Now, understand this, my opinion is colored, somewhat, by my knowledge that my father was being held in a P.O.W. camp on Honshu and was almost dead of starvation by war’s end, so my opinion of the necessity for the bombing may be just the littlest bit “colored” here.
Any weapon that can be developed will be used, eventually – the concept of M.A.D. only works if both sides of any conflict understand the consequences.
Trump is “in bed” with some of the most dangerous players in this high-stakes game and Trump has no clue about evaluating consequences!

Trump is single-handedly forcing Iran to develop their own nuclear arsenal, and, you know, I really don’t think that Azerbaijan is going to be their first target of opportunity.
