View, CA Lines: 19 When the Soviet regime is toppled? Hmmmmm. Actually, that's not a bad idea. Let's give them a push. Unfortunately, a military push is suicidal. But maybe there's another way. I have this bizarre idea that SOVIET SOCIETY IS INHERANTLY LESS CAPABLE OF PROCESSING INFORMATION than ours. So what do we do? How about burying them in a blizzard of potentially important info. So much that their creaking information processing capability (where every xerox machine is monitored by a KGB man) simply falls apart at the seams. The Russian people are tough as nails, and many in the Soviet Union consider themselves subject people (the Ukranian Army fought both the Nazi's and the Red Army during WWII). I think we can and should take advantage of this, but not militarily. Incidentally, Greenpeace successfully invaded Russia a few months ago - food for thought no? A non-violent army can go we're the U.S. armed forces fear to tread.
