Hmmm, They didn't show all of the amputee kids who are still falling

The war ends, but the killing doesn't stop. People still get killed
in Germany when a WWII bomb gets unearthed. Has anyone ever
considered building obsolescence into munitions? couldn't every new
bomb or rocket or cartridge contain something which would make it
inert after a few years?


Oh, sure. It wouldn't do much more than double the cost of each
munition. Taxpayers would like that even less. And the bad guys
would be sure to leave those devices intact before using them on
their
enemies.

War is hell. What say we just stop having wars?


It looks like the US just did, freeing everyone else to resume their
old ones.
