Why General Black? (SPOILERS)
Why did Blackie have to be assigned to the mission to drop the bombs on NYC? Couldn't another pilot have carried this out? At the very least, could he have been given the heads up to have his wife and sons get safely out of the way in time? Was it a test of loyalty from the President, who was sacrificing his own wife? Or was it just to emphasize to cruelty of the events?
I'm not crying, you fool, I'm laughing!
Hewwo.
