Ok you are the leader of a fictional country and a rogue nation have launched an extremely powerful nuclear weapon in your direction...do you fire back to defend your country, in the full knowledge that you will blown to tiny bits, or do you send your army to bring down this rogue state when you could be there for 15 years with terrible suffering to these brave young men.

..personally I can't decide as both decisions are equally abhorrent to me, but still that's life...

Is my fictional country a member of the UN? I would hope so, since we apparently have WMD's. But I agree, that the expense in life and resources makes declaring war with uncertain results an unpleasant choice for us, though doubtless the more attractive choice for our rogues.

Eh no its not you do not have the help of that corrupt collection of bottom feeders...exactly but 1 can't help wondering why they invariably declare war on a massively more powerful enemy
