Hiroshima 70 years ago

[Wyrd of Gawd]

In war everyone fights and everyone should be prepared to die as a consequence.  If people allow nuts to lead them then they have to pay the price for their stupidity.  So as a response strategy the first thing to do when attacked is to go after the enemy's major population centers and infrastructure.  Of course you need the proper weapon systems to do that or a fifth column in place before the shooting starts.  We were able to do that in WWII because we had long range bombers whereas the Japanese and Nazis didn't.  They thought that they were still in the 19th Century instead of the 20th Century.
