Wow your friends make your enemies fear you: Sadly I cannot take credit for this master piece, but im sure we could co-opt it for the Common Good.

A wonderful tool indeed for our Glorious Leaders! Think of Comrade Stalin giving one of his rousing speeches with the whole Politburo standing and applauding.... Then, one reactionary traitor stops applauding before the prescribed time and sits down. Back in the day, Uncle Joe would need to dispatch henchmen to find out who the culprit was and terminate him (as well as airbrush his picture out of the photos) thus wasting valuable time they could have been spending purging the Army Senior Staff. With this, all the Great One would have to do is launch as soon as the fool sat down! The Party Be Prasied! Does it come in green?

I don't understand the point? Are you striving to correct a comrade quietly? As for Comrade Stalin, I happen to know that he merely had a irritating allergy to indoor gunpowder smoke which distressed him greatly, for there is little more fun than to correct a comrade that is in error the moment they make an error. It is a most effective teaching tool as well, one that Comrade Saddam used often. Now I suppose a flying knife may be fun to play with, but it hardly seems like the sort of tool I would use.

I infer that you are a practitioner of the more subtle arts of persuasion, Comrade Marshal; you would prefer the scalpel over the sword. And in truth, the flying knife would be a pain in the babushka to sharpen! Still, some place should be found for these devices in the Arsenal of the Revolution; perhaps the next time imperialists invade the Motherland, they can be used to encourage the more reluctant members of the Peoples Army forward to do their duty. And, they would be excellent for serving guests at illustrious state dinners (the propellers can make cole slaw!)

Actually, I don't believe in bringing a knife to a firing squad exercise. Why bother with such a toy when all one need do is pull out a pistol or better yet, an AK-47 to correct a situation?

Speaking of bringing a gun to a knife fight...

I am not a Indy fan, but that is by far and away the very best scene in all the movies.
