I did not say that nobody had read them; I asked Jon if *he* had read them.
I was therefore not lying (which you could have known if you had bothered to
read that sentence again before replying to it by calling me a liar).

I am sure you would never advocate the mass slaughter of innocents. You did
however say a nuclear response would be appropriate -- the problem with that
is that a nuclear response would lead to the deaths of thousands of innocent
people.

In the sense that you are dead anyway, there is nothing special about it.
The response from loved ones that did not get killed however, might differ
greatly depending on how their loved one died: a heart attack, a car crash,
or a nuclear attack.
