it's the defacto stance of the leaders of the american empire: i visited the museum dedicated to the nuclear program from the 1970's named saturn and the docent remarked on the general's opinion to the effect that: if only 5 americans survive nuclear war and 4 russians surivived it; then the americans have won and it was worth it.
