->Daniel let off a throaty ‘mmhmm.’ “Advanced enough where we don’t make war on each other. Omoc, the leader of the Tollans we first made contact with, made an observation about nuclear weapons, which he claimed the Tollans had never built, because they were designed only for offensive war. He said we would wipe ourselves out if we did not learn quickly.”

->“Have you used nuclear weapons?” Commander Vasic asked.

->“We have,” O’Neill confirmed immediately.

->“Twice.” Daniel held up his middle and index finger. “And then and now there is still debate over their use and the mass death and horrors they’ve caused after their deployment.”

->O’Neill motioned for Daniel to lay off and let him take it. “And we did use them two other times as weapons of last resort, after much debate. We’ve conducted thousands of tests. But only twice on Earth, to end World War Two.”

->Daniel observed the reactions of the Colonials and their reactions. There was confusion and disbelief. They were mumbling to themselves, too low for the translators to pick up. Colonel Tigh and Yannis were both shaking their heads, the CAG motioning to the SG team. His body language showed he clearly didn’t believe them.

->“Your people have only used nuclear weapons twice…?” Yannis asked with a fake smile bordering on the disbelieving. Daniel nodded. “We’ve used nuclear weapons for centuries. But to the point of wiping each other out is madness… nuclear warfare is an integral part of our doctrine, Doctor. And who determines what ‘culture’ is more ‘advanced’… what does that even mean, Doctor?”

->“Integral, you say?" O'Neill raised an eyebrow. Yannis looked slowly towards him, nodding curtly.
