What is the most important weapon?

speakeasy

Propaganda - it can cause a people to defeat their own warriors when the warriors could have won. Or, it can inspire a people to give all to help their warriors succeed.

An army of one cannot win. A warrior needs support.

See who is trying to discourage you from victory and you will know who your enemy is.

Strategy, motivation, and more than anything: GUTS! You can't do anything if you don't have the courage to.

Not sure what kind of answer your looking for But i'll say AIR SUPERORITY.

I'll give an honerable mention to efficient supply lines too.. gotta stay hydrated and you always need medical supplies and food and water

Truth. There is no weapon that can, in the long term, vanquish truth. All lies are revealed, only the truth remains.

Depends who you are fighting. I would say a side arm, so either a sword or a pistol. Battle strategy is quite important, without a good strategy you have no chance.

SGT

The soldier. if you love the soldier and he loves you he will fight to the death and win.

The most important weapon to a soldier is his or her knowledge of the training they went thru,give anyone a gun and they will eventually pull the trigger..Give them the training and expertise to use that weapon..Well then you have all but won the war..So without a doubt the best weapon is Knowledge and training..

Intelligence. Technique wins out over brute strength every time.
Given the choice, I would choose brains and cunning over the bigger stick any day of the week.

Emotions only get you killed. The brain is the best weapon ever devised trust your brain over your heart and you have a much better chance of coming home in one piece. That heart of a warrior crap maybe great for Klingon's but doesn't cut no mustard on the battlefield. That kind of crap is reserved for arm chair generals and rambo wanna be's and we in the military don't need that kinda crap. So stay home sonny and watch your star trek reruns while the adults do the shooting.

Language and ideas are the most important weapon

Public opinion which in some ways is propaganda - The guy who gets to tell the public what the truth is etc

It seems most of the other answerers are in agreement with me... the answer is definitely the mind. A fully functional mind, that is; one that has not completely had the sense of logic pushed from it. Much of the daily goings-on in the military really do defy logic, as well as waste time, and there have been many times when a logical suggestion from a subordinate was ignored because of that person's rank. It is one of the weaker points of the military, but it is also an understandable, if unfortunate, consequence of a military hierarchy, which has worked pretty well for us thus far despite its imperfections--and it's definitely better now than it has ever been. (I am, of course, referring to the American military; military veterans from other nations may vouch for my opinions or have differing stories of their own). Nonetheless, a smart soldier, aware of himself, his surroundings, his unit, his equipment, his job, and his mission is unmatchable. Valor and well-meant strength of the heart is important, and has certainly turned the tide of many battles... but a well-executed mission conducted by trained, patient, and intelligent soldiers is a safer thing to rely on than blind courage alone, even if well-intended.

1) Patriotism
2) Intelligence
3) A good old trusty Bayonet (Bayonet charges still happen, and the enemy still poo themselves at the sight!)

That would be a bullet, at the right place, at the right time.

In my case, that would be a smart bomb.

Oil is the most important weapon that is Bush is using other destructive weapons just to get oil. He knows that if he control oil, so he have every influence on the rest of countries. Nuke is not important, because whatever is important it must help to the improvement and development of human life, and nuke did not help in that, it rather destroy humans.

Intelligence. Unfortunately, this is the administration's weakest point. Hence, our loses in Afghanistan and Iraq, and the reason we are losing the war on terror. No, that should be - the reason Republicans are losing the war on terror.

It will be OK though. Eventually, a Democratic President will save our collective butts once again.
