		In my view, nuclear weapons are the only weapons rightly called “weapons of mass destruction.” They demolish, incinerate, devastate, and radiate large areas, killing large numbers of people both immediately and through long-term radiation.
		The destruction could range from a few large city blocks to the entire downtown area of a major city, and depending on the bomb’s design, the radiation fallout could also be relatively limited.
