In an age of aeroplanes, you may fly
miles above your victim and dispose of him by
pressing one small switch. All you then
require is an ocean to separate you, two
systems of government, a nation’s scientists,
several factories, a psychopath and
land that no one needs for several years.
(from “Five Ways to Kill a Man”)
’50s U.K. poet Brock’s forecast was right except we’ve possibly got two opposed psychopaths and all and everything could get blown up for a very long time.
