The nuke blast has brevity Don - but the clean up takes ages.  The key 
thing is to buy all the cement factories before one of these 'surprise' 
wars.  I have a great plan.  We lay down all our arms, perhaps to 
demonstrate our new man claims to some feminnazi we fancy, and wait for 
peace to happen.  Now try and write a happy ending to that one, other than 
for the sand tribes who cheated and buried their Ak-47s in the desert.  I'm 
fed up with ban the bomb loonies because we'd obviously be better off 
without WMD and shouting this out without a realisitc solution on how seems 
dire.  

Not sure why the Japs bombed Pearl Harbour Don.  Part of some Brit-plot 
that included promoting a shell-shocked rent boy to German Chancellor and 
sales of carriers and planes to Nippon in return for keeping our drug trade 
with China being protected.  Don't the Japs own Hawaii now anyway?  Maybe 
they were just doing a bit of landscaping?  After all, you'd think they'd 
have waited until your carriers were in port if they were after the navy. 
 Maybe Facilitator erected one of his sculptures down at the port and the 
Japs thought it meant your emperor is a poofdah?

War has that great brevity.  Let's kill some other people.  We can make up 
good reasons after and send some other mugs out to do it.  And best still, 
we can get the bereaved to pay for our instant decision too, and get 
ourselves a sackful of whores with the profits for not building all those 
schools we promise to rebuild to keep public opinion that will never go 
looking sweet.  I know we'll end up in the same hole shooting the same 
varmints Don.  I'd just prefer to make my last stand knowing I'd hung me 
some banksters before I do my bot keeping the fundamentalist hordes out.
