For those who gasp in horror, climb down off the furniture. This is basically EVERYONE'S nuclear policy. Ours. Theirs. It doesn't matter. And for those who think this would be genocide or the end of the world, actually read some textbooks on nuclear weapons and warfare. It is not theoretical. Go see the fruit of time in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Or in Tokyo, which had far worse casualties and damage from fire bombing, but no one recalls or is bothered by that. Our wits are addled by the magic word "nuclear."
