Those numbers will be quickly replaced, and soon.Right, sort of a definitional problem between conventional munitions and asymmetric warfare. A million dollar missile can be hella good at what it does, but if what you do is launch it at an individual or a paper target...well, someone better have a long wallet to win that war.
Quote:Point is that The Donald is already showing his foreign policy to be an abject failure; he has accomplished nothing so far, and our best hope is that Trump & Friends do not lead our World to global thermonuclear war. I hope that you are concerned; I am, and you should be, also!You're doubting the pres, not the bomb. Take a number. Our president is a shitgibbon, but there's no reason to smear a perfectly good bomb with his filthy name. In fact, I'd be willing to bet that the bomb would be a better president, and obviously it would look a hell of alot cooler in the oval office than the current occupant.
