***How come US didn't bomb in Vietnam? 60,000 US soldiers dead. Not enough?The argument of the nature: "We did it then, so we should now" is rarely considered a strong one. Each case stands on its own merit, and in my mind it was arguably justifiable in 45, but not in 65. That's how *I" feel, so sue me.
As I said in my post, civilized people can argue over these things and probably never completely agree on anything. That is normal.
However, fundamentally I don't see any difference beetween then A-bomb, high explosives, machine guns and flame throwers. Our moral superstructure that we build using some of these weapons as foundations, simply reflects our present-day thinking and our search for truth, where there is never any final "right" answer.
So you are forever going to have the dilemas: Is it OK to shoot at the parachuting enemy pilot?
