Beside the point. I was commenting on the paranoid/misinformed rant that "use of bunker bunkers" means "use of nuclear bunker busters."
Someone probably typed "Bunker Buster" into a search engine, and got a lot of hits on the B61-11.
The junior Bush is very fond of small tactical nukes,
You know this how?
In April, the media reported that the US was considering development of a new small tactical nuke specifically tailored for use against "rogue dictators" hiding in underground bunkers or heavily fortified command centers, in violation of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and the Comprehensive Test Ban treaty. These would be used for, in the words of the director of Sandia, "deterrence in the non-Russian world." Since such research is currently illegal, Congress has tacked something onto the 2001 Defense Authorization Bill mandating a study by DOE and DOD into small-scale nuclear weapons use against dictators hiding in "hard and deepy buried targets." George W. Bush, John Warner, and Wayne Allard, are the culprits here. -- Eric Michael Cordian 0+ O:.T:.O:. Mathematical Munitions Division "Do What Thou Wilt Shall Be The Whole Of The Law"
