¿Podrán?
¿O es que han crecido tanto, tanto,
que, 'para destruírlos,
el destructor' también sucumbirá
bajo ese mismo fuego
que, para suprimirlos,
él mismo ha creado?
De ser así,
es la esperanza,
los sueños de los oprimidos,
--como decía Marx--
los que mueven la Historia y sus peldaños,
y los fabricadores de "News Triads",
palos y arcos,
tan sólo responde al polen levantado...
"The 2001 Nuclear Posture Review (NPR) constituted the first
comprehensive review of nuclear forces since 1994.
The 2001 NPR articulated a new capabilities-based strategy for US strategic nuclear forces that recognizes the unpredictable security environment and responds to US strategic deterrence objectives and force capability requirements. The new triad offers a mix of strategic offensive".
"The new triad offers a mix of strategic offensive and defensive
capabilities that includes nuclear and nonnuclear strike capabilities".
"The US does not make positive statements defining the
circumstances under which it would use nuclear weapons.
Maintaining US ambiguity about when it would use nuclear
weapons helps create doubt in the minds of potential adversaries, deterring them from taking hostile action. This calculated ambiguity helps reinforce deterrence. If the US clearly defined conditions under which it would use nuclear weapons, others might infer another set of circumstances in which the US would not use nuclear weapons. This perception would increase the chances that hostile leaders might not be deterred from taking actions they perceive as falling below that threshold."
"The use of nuclear weapons represents a significant escalation from conventional warfare and may be provoked by some action, event, or threat. However, like any military action, the decision to use nuclear weapons is driven by the political objective sought. This choice involves many political considerations, all of which impact nuclear weapon use, the types and number of weapons used, and method of employment."
"Nevertheless, while the belligerent that initiates nuclear
warfare may find itself the target of world condemnation, no
customary or conventional international law prohibits nations
from employing nuclear weapons in armed conflict."
The law of armed conflict does not prohibit nuclear weapons use in armed conflict although they are unique from conventional and even other WMD in the scope of their destructive potential and long-term effects."
"Targeting is the process of selecting and prioritizing targets and matching the appropriate response to them, taking into account operational requirements and capabilities. As nonnuclear strike capabilities and nuclear strike are integrated, targets that may have required a nuclear weapon to achieve the needed effects in previous planning may be targeted with conventional weapons, provided the required effects can be achieved."
"Integrating conventional and nuclear attacks will ensure the most efficient use of force and provide US leaders with a broader range of strike options to address immediate contingencies. Integration of conventional and nuclear forces is therefore crucial to the success of any comprehensive strategy. This integration will ensure optimal targeting, minimal collateral damage, and reduce the probability of escalation."
"To maintain their deterrent effect, US nuclear forces must maintain a strong and visible state of readiness. Strategic nuclear force readiness levels are categorized as either operationally deployed or as part of the responsive capability. US Operationally Deployed Strategic Nuclear Warheads will be limited to 1,700 to 2,200 by 2012."
"Weapons in the US nuclear arsenal include:
gravity bombs and cruise missiles deliverable by Dual Capable Aircraft and long-range bombers; the Tomahawk Land Attack Missile/Nuclear deliverable by attack submarines; submarine launched ballistic missiles; and intercontinental ballistic missiles. These systems provide the President and the geographic combatant commander with a wide range of options that can be tailored to meet desired military and political objectives."
"Nuclear Policy.
National Security Presidential Directive-14 lays out Presidential nuclear weapons planning guidance. It provides broad overarching guidance for nuclear weapon planning. National Security Presidential Directive-28 provides Presidential guidance on the command and control (C2), safety, and security of nuclear weapons. The Policy Guidance for the Employment of Nuclear Weapons is a Secretary of Defense document that implements Presidential guidance. The Joint Strategic Capabilities Plan (JSCP) Nuclear Supplement, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff instruction (CJCSI) 3110.04B, Nuclear Supplement to JSCP Joint Strategic Capabilities Plan for FY05 (U), provides the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff’s (CJCS’s) guidance to the combatant commanders and Service Chiefs for preparing and coordinating plans to deploy and employ nuclear weapons."
"Integrating conventional and nuclear attacks will ensure the most efficient use of force and provide US leaders with a broader range of strike options to address immediate contingencies. Integration of conventional and nuclear forces is therefore crucial to the success of any comprehensive strategy."

Me pasó algo curioso.
Cuando leía, corrijamos la siglas ahora, "D.iJ.eN.O."...era tan insano y catastróficamente sin límites tanta la locura, que pensé:
"No puede ser. Esto no puede ser verdad: es ciencia ficción escrita por un militar aficionado a la novela".
Pero, poco, a poco, ¿desafortunadamente?, ¿afortunadamente?, me fuí dando cuenta de que lo que leía era lo Real, en lo que auténticamente descansa el Poder, y que era esa Máscara, ese engaño, con el que nos hacen ver el mundo de la 'política' que esas armas --que son el 'summum' más tiránico de la historia--, precisamente, defienden, representan y sostienen, lo verdaderamente Ficticio:
la tramoya de la 'democracia', 'elecciones', 'votos', 'representaciones', 'derechos', 'leyes', 'constituciones', 'partidos políticos', 'debates', 'oportunidades', 'igualdades', etc,
que, en el momento más inesperado,
si no cumplen con los prerrequisitos establecidos
por los Amos de ese 'New Triad',
con "the most efficient use of force",
puede saltar todo por los aires
bajo un hongo que tiene la temperatura
de la superficie del sol...
¿Qué carajo es ésto?...
Porque esos dos mundos, esa Realidad y esa Ficción son totalmente incompatibles, la antítesis el uno del otro, dos hemisférios cerebrales que, en lugar de estar separados por un 'corpus callosum', están separados por un muro infranqueable que es el que hace posible que, desde el uno nunca se pueda vislumbrar al otro:
a un lado está el mundo cotidiano dónde todo parece matener un 'orden' desde el que nunca se puede imaginar que ésta sostenido por "The New Triad",
--un mundo dónde germina la amistad, el amor,
los hijos, la familia,
el trabajo organizado,
las luces racionales del semaforo,
los buenos ratos, los malos ratos....;
y, al otro lado, cubierto, tapado,
su opuesto: un hemisferio,
que, en concreto, sin tapujos, sin mascaras,
la "D.iJ.eN.O.",
vigila y amenaza,
como "part of the tool box",
para que el rebaño haga lo que se le manda,
un universo dantesco, monstruoso,
dónde el hombre ha puesto toda su sabiduría
para traer el Infierno a la Tierra
a aquellos a los que hay 'castigar'.
Y estos dos mundos, naturalmente, son Absolutamente Antitéticos, porque el uno niega al otro,
y así, si uno es real,
el otro tiene que ser -por contraposión- ficticio.
Y esto fué lo curioso que me pasó:
que creí ver Ficción donde está la Realidad,
pero pronto "me dí cuenta de ello"
y, acabé, lógicamente,
llamándole al "pan, pan, y al vino, vino".
Aúnque, personalmente,
me hubíera gustado
"nunca darme cuenta de ello",
porque ver como real ese 'The New Triad'
es verse implacablemente condenado a dmititir
algo que hace tambalear éste otro universo
en el que existimos,
el 'orden' de esas 'luces racionales del semáforo'
que 'no discriman ni a pobres ni a ricos'.
