All Else Being the Same, a Moral Position in War is Untenable

Counter MovesFirst, the small stuff:1) NationB is using aerial refuellers, so range of aircraft is not a big concern.2) Airfields are NOT abandoned. Most of the US's most active military airfields are embedded within civilian populaces (Hickam and Travis AFB, for example), as are NationB's.3) Round #1 set some strict conscription limits, 120 million out of 320 million can be conscripted, not that NationA's conscription policy will make a difference.4) Missile defense is "an expensive false promise" and cannot deter a concerted ICBM strike - http://www.ucsusa.org...5) We also have identical EW aircraft (like the Growler) and can deploy them in formation such that any enemy EW attack attempts are intercepted and neutralized by our own EW attacks before they can engage with their actual targets.Now, the big stuff:1) NationA does NOT have a viable MAD strategy. Yes, NationA does have a MAD capability, but that capability is severely hamstrung if not outright grounded by NationA's moral code. The moment a single NationB civilian dies from any NationA WMD attack, CON loses this debate and PRO wins.Because of this, NationA's continual sabre-rattling about MAD is nothing but a gigantic bluff. NationB has fully neutralized NationA's MAD threat by embedding its nuclear silos/launchers within its civilian populace.This point becomes really, really important when looking at the following arguments:2) The Constitution has been suspended. CON is severely underestimating the gravity of the situation. CON thinks that the nuclear Armageddon scenario embodied by MAD does not require exceptional constitutional measures. This is completely and utterly irrational and irresponsible of NationA to advocate.The SCOTUS has been clear that "Martial law ... destroys every guarantee of the Constitution...Civil liberty and this kind of martial law cannot endure together; the antagonism is irreconcilable; and, in the conflict, one or the other must perish...If, in foreign invasion or civil war, the courts are actually closed, and it is impossible to administer criminal justice according to law, then, on the theatre of active military operations, where war really prevails, there is a necessity to furnish a substitute for the civil authority, thus overthrown, to preserve the safety of the army and society; and as no power is left but the military, it is allowed to govern by martial rule until the laws can have their free course...It is also confined to the locality of actual war." (ex parte Milligan, http://www.usconstitution.net...)We are at war, to be precise nuclear war. In nuclear war, the CINC/POTUS must make decisions within minutes if not seconds that can quite literally decide the fate of the world. There is no legislative process or judicial review possible when the POTUS is utilizing the nuclear football (http://en.wikipedia.org...)...such measures take time, time that is not available in such scenarios. The courts have thus ceased to function, it has indeed become impossible to administer any sort of civil justice under such conditions. It is under these circumstances, and only these circumstances, that has caused NationA to declare martial law. We are thus fully legally and morally justified in enacting martial law.Martial law also suspends CON's Posse Comitatus arguments, as they are only valid when the Constitution is not suspended.We already see the benefits of such implementation. Because of NationA's MAD sabre rattling, NationB is fully justified in doing whatever it takes to maintain the full integrity and functioning of our military in order to deter NationA's rampant aggression. While NationA's moral code precludes it from killing civilians, it does NOT preclude it from committing the following atrocities, many of which constitute genocide and some of which NationA has already prepared to execute via "liberation":- forced enslavement (NationA has drafted its entire populace!!)- disenfranchisement- forced sterilization- forced relocation- mass imprisonmentThe only way to guarantee that NationB is free from any genocidal intentions NationA may harbor is to win this war. NationB aims to exploit the central weakness in NationA's national security, that being its moral position, which has made it vulnerable to a nuclear first-strike and subsequent occupation of its capital. Our own generously compensated civilians, the brave volunteers whom have embedded themselves into our military in what we have named "Operation: Angels in our Midst" (all of whom will be tranquilized in order to minimize disruption to operations), become our greatest weapon against NationA's rapacious warmongering.ConclusionNationA has refused to surrender, and has thus subjected its capital(s) to summary annihilation. NationB's plan remains unchanged. Despite its vaunted moral position, NationA's governing structure is morally bankrupt and deserves to lose this war.
