Yes, there has been ancillary damage to the United States. But the catastrophic damage is limited to the Democratic brand -- the ultimate proof, written in letters a mile high, that if Luxembourg were to attack the U.S. with a Democrat in office, we'd all be subjects of the Grand Duke two weeks later, without, furthermore, anybody being able to figure out how it happened
OK, this sounds a bit better, but still kind of chickensit, at least compared to good ole BUFFing: A message implying that certain jihadi leaders are on the payroll. That a critical North Korean officer is a Western agent. That certain things that Osama, the mullahs, or Dear Leader wanted done were not done, or were botched in the doing. (In the late 1930s, German intelligence eliminated Soviet Marshal Tukachevsky, the actual formulator of the blitzkrieg strategy, and his entire general staff by exactly this means. Even if the victim suspects the info is false, he still has to take some action. Needless to say, the ultra-paranoid Stalin didn't require much prompting.)
The first aircraft raids were carried out by pilots tossing grenades from open-cockpit biplanes. We are the same position as the soldiers gazing up out of the trenches and wondering what the hell that was all about as the offending kite puttered off into the clouds. People in 1914 were not yet introduced to the concept of technological extrapolation; they did not even consider the possibility of the vast air fleets, ruined cities, and atomic bomb strikes that were to grow from such trivial origins.
Actually, it all started in 1910. In Paris. With Henri Marie. Rot is still seething over that.
The officer corps sitting to sup at Chez Marie, in Paris, snuffling down truffles and wine, would have advocated, as they did, more troops and artillery. The guys in the trenches would have advocated, as they did, anything, absolutely anything, but that.
Herr Rott, as ever your capacity for reading is as stunning as your Logik. The officer corps, at headquarters, in WWI, stuck by the "remedies" of pouring in troops and artillery, building bloodbath upon bloodbath, even as the soldiers in the trenches railed openly [with frequent mutiny to back up that railing] at the idiocy of it all. But keep relying on your Thucydides for the info on the "Great War".
The visuals on this post are getting to be overpowering. How did we get from Stuxnet and fryin' chicken to Grosse Dicke Bertha spewing flames from its Coanda rear jet?

Ululululululu, says Pepe.

This is an interesting article. Not so sure about your BUFFing.
The guy in the WWI trench would have advocated more troops and artillery.
And he would have lost.
We need Stuxnet, BUFFs, and artillery and troops. But as the author says at the end, we also need a healthy society.
Exactly backwards, Herr Rott.
The officer corps sitting to sup at Chez Marie, in Paris, snuffling down truffles and wine, would have advocated, as they did, more troops and artillery.
The guys in the trenches would have advocated, as they did, anything, absolutely anything, but that.
So, you're saying that in WWI, no one ever called for reinforcements.
Interesting, Herr ThAAcydides.
In WWI, they would have called for die Grosse Dicke Bertha to do some BUFFing.
Pepe would understand.
Gross Dicke Bertha is a friend of Kayla's, right?

So the guys in the trenches in WWI wrote Stuxnet??
Jeez, AA you need a rest.
Yes, with that nonsequitur flmaing from his rear, Rotter needs his rest.
If you're going to fantasize about Kayla and her friend Gross Dicke Bertha, then please keep me out of your dreams.

I thought that on this blog all threads of more than 7 or 8 comments ended up with Kayla and asses shooting flames and your trying a tie-in to Coanda.
No?
That about sums it up, Herr Rotter. Bottoms up!
