All wars, from the sling-shot to the spear, from the bow and arrow to the musket, have been primarily won by military force (sling-shot, spear, bow, musket, rifle, tanks, jets, etc.). In 1945 a new weapon appeared...the A-Bomb. What was the obstacle(s) facing the US from the beginning? How to win the war without using full military force...the A-Bomb. Invading the north might ultimately lead to using atomic weapons...especially if communist superpowers intervened. Solution: The US fought a "limited war" (limited to NON-nukes). Instead of taking ground (traditional methods of fighting wars); bodies were taken instead (a war of attrition).
