FWIW, all of the scientists involved in creating the first nuclear weapons immediately after the first detonation began pushing for a ban on further nuclear armament, and since then all wars have been fought with conventional weapons.
I've been reading about the nuclear arms race and it is terrifying how often we came to destroying ourselves. I have possibly never seen greater evidence that there may be a god.

- run4yourlives2 11y agoIt's worth noting here that even Hitler and Stalin opted against deploying chemical weapons. Well, at least on the battlefield. Of course both of them had direct experience of being a victim to those weapons. The same cannot be said for nuclear weapons I'm afraid. People forget how bad things can be given enough time.
