Ministry of Propaganda - 02/Jun/2003: "Soldier or machine?"

Soldier or machine?

A scary read about the soldier of the future. Is this still a soldier or already a machine? On second thoughts, why don't they invent a robot to fight in the first place? Then the opposing states could just let the robots fight against each other instead of human beings killing other human beings. On third thoughts, may be it would be a better idea to spend all the billions needed to develop these techno soldiers on better things to eradicate the reasons for a lot of the wars: Poverty, lack of perspective or lack of education to name a few.
