:28:03
Take that up with the civilians
of London, Hamburg, Dresden orTokyo...
:28:08
killed by the thousands
in bombing raids.
:28:11
I omit Hiroshima and Nagasaki...
:28:13
since those actions belong
more properly to World War III...
:28:16
than World War II.
:28:17
I still don't see
how we could restrict a war.
:28:21
We could come to a mutual agreement
with the Russians...
:28:24
to strike only at missile bases.
:28:27
What ifthe missile bases
were near the cities?
:28:30
Theywould have an incentive
to move them elsewhere.
:28:32
They might take such an offer
as a sign ofweakness on our part.
:28:35
- It could be worth a try.
- They have as much to lose as we have.
:28:39
We're talking
about the wrong subject.
:28:43
We've got to stop war,
not limit it.
:28:46
That is not up to us, General Black.
:28:49
We're the ones
who know most about it.
:28:51
You're a soldier, Blackie.
You carry out policy.
:28:54
- You don't make it.
- Don't kid yourself, Stark.
:28:58
The waywe say a war can be fought
is making policy.
:29:01
Ifwe saywe can fight
a limited warwith nuclearweapons...
:29:05
we let everyone offthe hook.
:29:06
It's what theywant to hear.
:29:08
We canjust keep doing what we're doing,
and nobody really gets hurt.
:29:12
Butyou can't fight a limited war,
and you know it.
:29:14
I'm not so sure.
:29:16
There's no such thing
as a limited war anymore.
:29:19
Not with hydrogen bombs.
:29:22
Once those bombs start to drop,
you won't be able to limit a thing.
:29:26
Areyou advocating disarmament?
:29:34
I don't know.
:29:36
It's the logic ofyour position.
:29:39
Peculiar reversal.
The press would be interested.
:29:42
The military man who is the dove,
and the civilian who is the hawk.
:29:49
We're going too fast.
:29:52
Things are getting out ofhand.
:29:53
Can you be more specific, General?
:29:57
We're all trying
to make war more efficient.
:29:58
- That's ourjob.
- And we're succeeding.
