if it were over the ocean but heading for land, they probably would blow
it to smithereens, and do so without even feeling very bad about it
(hey, a little target practice with the old sidewinders!). this is
(seriously) not intended to offend, but if you don't think that would
happen, you are probably being too sensitive or have not met with the
hardware mentality that most fighter pilots carry. the "save the majority"
ethic has always been alive and well in the military.
