... stop Pakistan from developing it's nukes? Pakistani nuclear experts have helped North Korea in developing it's nuke program. Are we going to bomb North Korea?

No nation should have nuclear weapons. People like TACO and Hogsbreath just got away with some rank shit. If they keep escalating, how far from a nuking of some enemy nation are we? How sure are we that the military would keep the nukes in storage in spite of TACO? I'll admit, I feel better about the Army now that they soft shoe-ed TACOs parade, I feel confident the Navy won't go rogue, but the air Force is a whole different culture.

My ex-son in law is an Air Force Academy graduate, and he was a grade a jack ass. As an LT and a drone pilot, he got himself discharged over consorting with sex workers. I admit, he colors my opinion of the AF.

I was a 4.0 sailor. I know I could have hacked Army life. I think I'd have been washed out of the Air Force.
