RE: Is There Such a Thing As A Safe Bomb? Yes, Paradoxical but Possible!
While a sleep bomb would be a nice idea, why not a different way of identifying targets. I think a better use of intelligence should be to monitor the environs of potential targets...
I know we all say "thank you for your service" to our Men and Women out there serving our needs, but do they ever say that statement to each other? No; simply we thank them for their service since it means we do not have to go and do what they sometimes have to do.
I do not say this to be disrespectful of their Service nor Duty, but to point out; most of these service personnel are "on the college program". How many young people would sign up if the Government gave them a written guarantee like this; 'after four years service, we will publicly thank you and then execute you'...
I mean these young people are prepared to serve and understand that sometimes they will be placed in the way of severe threats to their life and liberty, but ultimately they expect to serve and move onto other things in civilian life...
Boots on the ground sounds great except there are always to many unknown factors and risks associated with such actions, better to identify targets; validate they are legitimate targets and the best way to kill or neutralize them without damage to surrounding environs.
It is better to let one live target go free instead of accepting the deaths of one collateral damage unintended target.
Simply profile the best way to find, confirm the target and use whatever force that achieves the mission without risking other lives nor damages important infrastructure...
