You are absolutely correct. Just like dealing with individuals trying to harm you or yours that have to be stopped right now. There are nations, organizations that would bring harm to this nation and it'd people that need to be deterred and or destroyed. I would like police action wars like Korea and the SEATO to cause the war in South VN forever stopped unless our military has the orders to do whatever is required, using whatever weapon is the most expedient with the least number of casualties to our troops. You will notice that Germany and Japan both have played nicely the past 75 years
