Not really, because when your demoralization campaign is successful and you
eject the enemy from their territory, you're going to be up to your ass
in... diapers.  Which will demoralize you, and then you'll be ejected from
their territory....

Conversely, if it doesn't demoralize them, they'll just bury them in
landfills or make POWs wear them.  That's just attrition: how much fuel
you're willing to spend to airdrop diapers vs. how many shovels they have to
bury them.  It could tie up some resources but I bet they'll win that one.
It'll probably raise their morale, "Kill those !#$!@#@!# bastards who keep
dropping diapers on us!"

Are you sure you didn't mean "a bomb bong?"  You sound a little over
enthusiastic, like you just had one.
