The idea goes;
we are bigger and stronger,
or just better-armed.

Because we have power;
to victimize the weak seems
excessively cruel.

That is the beauty
of nuclear weapons.
The are so fearsome
that they scare malefactors
into inaction.
And if not,
at least it is all
over quickly
and without much pain.

For the lucky ones,
perhaps, but those who survive
are not left with much.

The solution is
a very large arsenal
of high yield warheads
and reliable delivery systems
that can defeat ABMs,
for instance decoys and MIRVs.

I think it would be
overkill to nuke kittens.
But since we have not
tested in such a long time,
if you have some kittens
then I am game.

We can ask the Iranians, I hear they want to test soon so they can join the nations contributing to world peace by piling on nukes.

The essense of good
government is to occasionally
and visibly punish those
who don't deserve it.
The true origin
of gratitude is not
benefits received
but punishment spared.
