Attention Iraqi Insurgents

Due to your repeated roadside bombings, we will be executing every other military aged male until you learn to be civilized.
 
Cobalt-salt the earth. Constantly bomb everything for 50 years, no ground troops, no occupation. When it's all over, turn the rubble into a massive parking lot.

Realistically a sustained air campaign of that magnitude would be an absolute money pit, turning us into a global pariah for diminishing returns.

Nukes are obviously off the table because irradiating the gulf and setting oil infrastructure on fire is bad for business.
 
Also, when I was a kid I thought that Darwin was real.
Granted I only ever watched a few episodes, and that was on a 22" analogue TV back when it originally aired, but I'd always assumed it was just a trained Dolphin actor that they drugged up or something to work with. But no, looking it up, it's was an animatronic puppet created by VFX guy Walt Conti, who also worked on Star Trek IV (it all comes back to Trek).

The idea of producers buying and drugging a dolphin for the sake of a third rate Star Trek ripoff, and then putting him in the opening credits... I don't know if that or the robot is more insulting to the two actors who go after him.
