The precedent that would be set by any use of such weapons in the current situation would do far more damage to US standing in the world than most anything else I could imagine. As has become a habit from subscribing to this list, I find myself thinking "who is the intended audience" whenever something is written, or a statement is released. At first, I tried to imagine that the purpose of this "piece" was really to galvanize rational thought against the use of such weapons, by offering a "straw-man" consideration of their use. But I recognize that this article goes out world-wide. So perhaps it was intended to "scare" our real enemies. I doubt that it does, for we would certainly lose far more than we would gain, in my opinion. ____tony____ At 01:37 PM 9/15/01 +0500, you wrote: >I see a lot of Jingoism here.
