Wow, this is not at all what I meant. The scenario could be vastly different, it doesn't even have to be about nuclear submarines. And even if it was about nuclear subs, it's not about killing as many people as possible (wtf?), it's about choosing a sensible course of action beforehand for a catastrophic and chaotic event.
...and I think that's pretty clear when you read my comment. Are you choosing to misunderstand?
- chrisbennet 13y agoI just saw your response to my comment. No, sincerely, it wasn't clear to me. I wasn't being deliberately obtuse. Letters of Last Resort are/were written in the context of the policy of Mutual Assured Destruction (M.A.D.) which was predicated on the premise that if you wiped me out, my retaliation would wipe you out. My comment was made with that in mind.
