The genius of Zappa

Quote:
"Defense Money should be put into manpower and equipment appropriate to the kinds of conflicts we are really going to encounter in the next quarter-century. The manpower should be dedicated, the equipment should be easy to operate and maintain, and the management of military assets should be streamlined. Let's say we have to make some 'show of force.' The most common scenarios involve small guerrilla or terrorist groups. Nuclear retaliation? It has been suggested by others that Aerosol Pork Grenades would be a better deterrent--Islamic Martyrs are denied entrance to heaven if they show up at the gate smelling like a pig. Denial of The Big Payoff removes a certain cachet from acts of voluntary self-destruction." -Frank Zappa, 1989
Even if we don't actually manufacture them, we should at least have a disinformation campaign convincing them we are. Expand it to other munitions where practical, like drone launched weapons.
That and a policy that all of our snipers and drone operators will be women.
