In the next scene we take a backseat ride upon the “Leper Colony “ the B-52 bomber ordered the wing attack ,Plan R for Romeo by the very sane ,sorry meant same General Ripper .Aboard the Leper Colony we have a posse headed by Major "King" Kong, an old-fashioned, gung-ho cowboy complete with hat and southern accent, these men are as U.S.A and anti-Communist as they come. As the men are faced with the reality of their mission to release the nuclear warheads , Major King Kong delivers over the intercom, a impressive, patriotic speech to his men , a parody of the loyal American sent on a glory red ,white and blue mission: “Now look, boys. I ain't much of a hand at makin' speeches. But I got a pretty fair idea that somethin' doggoned important's going on back there. And I got a fair idea of the kind of personal emotions that some of you fellas may be thinkin'. Heck, I reckon you wouldn't even be human beins if you didn't have some pretty strong personal feelings about nuclear combat. But I want you to remember one thing - the folks back home is a countin' on ya, and by golly, we ain't about to let 'em down. Tell ya somethin' else - this thing turns out to be half as important as I figure it just might be, I'd say that you're all in line for some important promotions an' personal citations when this thing's over with. That goes for every last one of ya, regardless of your race, color, or your creed. Now, let's get this thing on the hump. We got some flyin' to do.”The realist assumption can be seen here as state survival and state security are the main courses on the Major’s buffet. We also see another one of Morghenthau’s points as politics should be judged as how they affect the state’s power or position of power .The Major took his mission with popular “You gotta do what you gotta do “to protect the interests of his people and state (Morghenthau,1973,pg7).

The subtle delicate sarcasm takes a jab at realist’s and their perception that the world is conflictual and that war and military supremacy are prerogatives of the nation. In fact, I'd be concerned about anyone who takes this movie too seriously. That, after all, isn't the type of person Dr. Strangelove is targeted for; it's this type of person this film takes a shot at.

In conclusion the feminist and realist themes seems rather evident ,especially keeping in mind the context of a bi-polar world (Cold War)against the uni-polar world we are living through at the moment . The mid-1960s film's nightmarish, apocalyptic theme was about how technology had gone disastrous and had dominated humanity. The film's anti-war fears actually became a more realistic scenario, shortly later the assassination of President Kennedy, the Bay of Pigs fiasco and the escalation of the Cold War and nuclear arms race. Also the at the time of the production,the public sphere of a woman was still developing and their political roles have come a long way since then . Its black and white photography helps, too, putting an serious face on its deadly political sarcasm. The black and white photography also helps give the film and the situation more legitimacy and a more serious tone amidst the sexually referenced names of the various cartoonishly created characters representing bureaucrats of the two great superpowers of the time . Kubrick isn't especially kind to the military attitude, as come to life by General “Buck” Turgidson .General anticipates Communist plots everywhere, flirts with a girlfriend during a national crisis, estimates 10-20 million American casualties are acceptable, and wishes the U.S. had some sort of doomsday machine to match the Russians' capabilities.
