Bombs spread out as they fall from 10,000+ feet up.Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree... -
Yep, it is a devastating weapon. But in the end it is a political decision to use it.BlahComment

You can put the death toll in the millions. My five million number may (or may not) be a little high. Chalk it up to a little hyperbole plus a lot of truth.Originally posted by Ecthelion

Well, that comes a little closer to 'carpet bombing' than the 'coventrizing' tactics in WWII
And they're actually celebrating the damn thing's construction?

Happy birthday to one of the nicest bombers ever built!
The B-52 is an amazing machine, despite what that commie Chegitz said. It is to maintain security in this world.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)Comment

At first, I thought you were talking about the B-52 band.......but the plane.
Happy birthday!
Che; for the love of god...stop making these things up. B-52 wasnt in service during Korea and i'de put its victims somewhere about 1,000,000. We never carpet bombed any cities with it. Only enemy troops. They sure as hell arent victims. They were combantants.Comment

Geeze Che, show some respect for a fine piece of American Workmanship.
Today, you are the waves of the Pacific, pushing ever eastward. You are the sequoias rising from the Sierra Nevada, defiant and enduring.Comment

My favorite plane since I was a kid, and still the most useful bomber in the inventory. Hapy birthday B-52, and death to the enemies of America!He's got the Midas touch.
But he touched it too much!

The Viet Cong used to wet there pants whn they saw a formation of 3-5 of them. The Iraqi's and serbs even more afraid. The pay loads from those babies could kill anthing in a 10 football field radius. And make people outside the area, deaf.Comment

Not that the people's government had anything to do with those deaths either I suppose. They way you make it out che is that the Pilots were flying around and had nothing to do and just decided to kill lots of people for the hell of it. Yeah its a bad thing. And I don't wish death on anyone after experienceing the death of someone close to me. But death is apart of the consquences. The B-52 is a tool. Nothing more. A remarkable tool without a doubt, but in the end just a piece of equipment used by men in response to other men.Originally posted by chegitz guevara
Hurray for the plane that killed 5 million people. yay.
Which side are we on? We're on the side of the demons, Chief. We are evil men in the gardens of paradise, sent by the forces of death to spread devastation and destruction wherever we go. I'm surprised you didn't know that. --Saul TighComment

I wonder why B-1 never lives up to B-52's standard, despite being much more advanced and costly.Comment

It's too expensive to risk in sustained operations, or to be used in numbers.Originally posted by Transcend
