Quote:where in order to win you need to be willing to step over that legal and moral line to bring your enemy the horror necessary to entirely demoralize them.Funny, I would have expected that having the biggest military spending, the biggest fleet, the largest army, and the availability of even nuclear weapons would help to win wars. I thought that crossing legal and moral lines are things that (civilized) nations would only do as a last resort, like when faced by extinction by a superior enemy, for example.
Btw, who is Joshua and what is a MF?
Quote:My theory is based upon "Snakes on a Plane".That makes sense. The problem in that movie could have been solved by simply lowering the temperature to make the snakes less aggressive. However, that would have made a boring movie, which is not good for profits.
