Historically there's no victory in the gross amount of fire power and weaponry from any nation's toxic munitions. Wars are not won by the military but in the end by diplomats and wise politicians.
The Japanese were ready to surrender in WWII, but unwise politicians felt all the billions of dollars spent on nuclear bombs had to be justified in nuking Japan–already carpet bombed, the way of the world–admitted by generals in the aftermath. Nuclear bombs including the H-Bomb were the most costly experiments in the history of humanity used as guinea pigs.
Only those who made nukes under the Manhattan Project knew the results. Most of these scientists, nuclear physicists and mathematicians didn't advocate using them on any form of life. But the authoritarians went ahead any way with, not listening to the inventors and didn't have a clue as to the horrible generational outcome. Machiavelli's policy was "the end justifies the means"–absolutely obsolete in a nuclear age.
Dear Ones,
The most powerful and effective way to win wars is by international peace departments hiring the best and most accomplished arbitrators in the world, for check and balance of power.
Wars in their futility are not won through strategy but instead through the tactics of wisdom–how to avoid aggression that leads to suicides in all senses of the word. Surprise suicide slave bombers are difficult to stop and suicide following war zone sacrificial bloody alters adds to wars' tragic deaths of soldiers, often too mutilated to survive mentally if not physically. Refugees and the environment also suffer from radical climate and weather conditions causing natural disasters from accumulative explosive toxicants and the carbons of war.
Strangely enough, despite all the world prayers and even by administrations in Washington, D.C., there are few in government working for peace in a war economy. The irony is maddening and transparent.
