"we say who does what" is our national policy. As a stragtegy it's worked out really well for all the other powers who've tried it.

And you're right, I'll back off, the use of the word 'Awe' for man made destruction is legitame.

I think my objection is WE are using them word to describe OURSELVES destroying things.

It's not enough to do it. We have to brag about how big it's going to be. We can't say, "we will defeat you", we have to say "You will hold us in Awe". I think it's a poor choice of words. I think if our actions inspire awe at all it will be short lived.

A better name for this startegy would be "Shock and Murderous Rage". It describes what we're doing and what the reaction will almost certainly be.
