If you look at all the armies of the world today. I think we may
be at the crossroads of this early development.
In the beginning people fought with bare hands, then somebody
thought of using stones to kill the enemy better in warfare, once
that happened everybody used stones, then slowly they sharpened it
or put it on long sticks to get unfair advantage, then when that no
longer became an advantage people developed flint, copper and iron
swords, spears and ballisticas up to the present day where we have
tanks, warplanes and nuclear weapons. What happens if one day
everybody has nuclear weapons and chems?
I think eventually the new edge in warfare will be the use of
highly advanced steroids which makes soldiers temporary impervious
to fear and pain.
