    <<Until you come out and say "We're going to war because we feel like it and
    we don't have to justify ourselves to you, so go f*ck yourselves", you are
    implicitly claiming the moral high ground. So are you saying that?

    Since you yourself are a musician (if I recall properly) you might appreciate
    this reply delivered, by the lyricist Randt Newman. Note: Being an Extropian
    doesn't mean permitting ourselves to be human shields. (putting pitch-pipe to
    lips***Pweeeeeee!)

    Political Science
    No one likes us-I don't know why
    We may not be perfect, but heaven knows we try
    But all around, even our old friends put us down
    Let's drop the big one and see what happens

    We give them money-but are they grateful?
    No, they're spiteful and they're hateful
    They don't respect us-so let's surprise them
    We'll drop the big one and pulverize them

    Asia's crowded and Europe's too old
    Africa is far too hot
    And Canada's too cold
    And South America stole our name
    Let's drop the big one
    There'll be no one left to blame us

    We'll save Australia
    Don't wanna hurt no kangaroo
    We'll build an All American amusement park there
    They got surfin', too

    Boom goes London and boom Paree
    More room for you and more room for me
    And every city the whole world round
    Will just be another American town
    Oh, how peaceful it will be
    We'll set everybody free
    You'll wear a Japanese kimono
    And there'll be Italian shoes for me

    They all hate us anyhow
    So let's drop the big one now
    Let's drop the big one now
