Shock and Awe and precision weapons are ideas that do not ring particulalry true when put side by side. "Surgical Carpet Bombing"? confused.gif

 

This is a show of dominance, never forget that. The US could have taken the posisition that this was an unfortunate war and gone about it in a much more subtle manner than the Hollywoodization currently unfolding. The delight in weaponry (see cnn.com for 3D models of both the F 177A and the Tomahawk rolleyes.gif) is characteristic of the need to strut before the world the latest developments of Lockheed Martin, Boeing, and feel like the swollen, engorged testes of an infantryman making a port call after being at sea for weeks hellno3d.gif

 

What do you think the purpose for war is? Beat them but make sure their self-esteem is left intact? Dude, you have no idea. The idea of war is to DESTROY your enemies, not scare them. rolleyes.gif Sheesh! The more we can "shock and awe", the better chance we have of destroying our enemy's will to fight, making the job of our infantry easier.

Your own opinion of yourself isn't worth much Tom, and it seems quite a few of the rest of the crowd here find you about as articulate as a horse

If you're doing a good job others will pat you on the back. Patting yourself on the back makes you look narcistic.
