Literally North Korea, but way to ignore the point.
All it takes is one maniac or rogue government to come into power and the world is over if they decide to do the unthinkable. We came close to the end of the world because of literal malfunctioning equipment before.
Nobody should have these weapons, the people who saw first hand what they did to the Japanese know that, and despite how often the narrative is that it was a necessary evil to end WWII, their very existence should constitute a war crime seeing that they are indiscriminate in who they kill, to which innocent civilians will be guaranteed to always die seeing that these weapons have only gotten more powerful since Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
I can’t even trust governments not to drone strike innocent families in the Middle East, why the fuck should I trust them with weapons that can kill millions?
Are we forgetting the North Korea crisis?
“Trump warns N Korea that US military is ‘locked and loaded’”
“Trump Threatens ‘Fire and Fury’ Against North Korea if It Endangers U.S.”
“Trump discussed using a nuclear weapon on North Korea in 2017 and blaming it on someone else, book says”
Putting aside the fact that the war in Iraq should have never happened to begin with, even when you have soldiers deliberately gunning down civilians like they did in Haditha, and bombs hitting civilians, that’s spread out over a larger area that is overall more deliberate in targetting military targets. Conventional warfare for all it’s flaws, is more humane than say, nuking a city of a million people and calling it a day. One of the reasons landmines are considered a war crime is because they’re indiscriminate. Nukes should be classified the exact same way.
