@ThiccSpicyGenderRevealParty during the Vietnam Conflict the US originally used flecette anti-personelle mines. Which were replaced with steel bearings after it was decried as "inhumane" to literally shred an enemy
The US also made use of the M16A1 as the round would often wound instead of kill for two reasons. A wounded enemy could be questioned, where as dead men tell no tales
Wounded enemies also had a higher chance of taking more enemy combatants off the battlefield.
@HeisRisen yes
I believe they even made a sort of flechette cannon that was mounted to an m16/m60
forgotten weapons did a video on it
I see, sounds good. I love history.
Guys
ultimate tactic right here
@ThiccSpicyGenderRevealParty maybe, flechette rounds ring a bell
Bombing cities with bombers
but instead of actual bombs,
its like the decoy grenades from COD where it just sounds really loud
Geneva can't touch you if you don't actually hit civillians
And bombing cities usually works against you
Angers the civies and when the whole community gets involved, fighting the enemy is 100 times harder
remember
not actual bombs
fake ones
Right
Some bombs were unexploded in the streets in Nagorno Karabkh.
one thing i will never understand is when people stay in a besieged city, even though the people maintaining the siege already gave them ample time to escape or be branded as enemy combatants
and then those who survived complain that the enemy purposely targeted civillians
Same reason people don't evacuate during a hurricane or flood and get trapped on their roof
heres the thing though
Stubborn, stupid, or completely jaded
fair enough
More likely to survive a hurricane rather then an attack on your life.
In this case.
But yeah, stubborn and stupid. Far too many of them.
@HeisRisen see option 2
Topic change
alright
I find ancient myths to be the most fascinating
And comparing the really old stories to natural phenomenon or large scale natural disasters explains or gives credence to an oral record of natural history
For instance, EVERY culture has a myth about the sun going out
Which may be a record of a volcanic eruption like krakatoa
Fun Fact, theres a huge fault connected to the san andreas fault where the last time it went active, it was resonsible for tsunamis that hit both Japan and North America
Yeah and its been proven that even fault lines that haven't had activity in a thousand years are not dead, just currently inactive
But the most interesting tale is the collective tales about people that live in the sky or stars
