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

I was speaking as to another likely reason for fake bombs

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

um so i just rechecked about the fault lin
