Now looking at today, would I have dropped a nuke on on Iraq? No. But, I would bombard the hell out of ever insurgent stronghold regardless of civilians.
But what I'm really asking is would you (OOC) drop a nuke to save your people's lives?

and i see this as being just exactly backwards,
domonstrating the lack of a conscience,

I am talking about agents on the level of the stuff from Omega Man or The Stand.
Other then that, there are more effective methods of destroying a target that would not require that magnitude of force.
