I agree with Michael Lind, to a fair degree. Let’s not worry so much about nuclear weapons or disarmament. Nukes (or war bugs or chemicals) kill, but so do bullets, hand grenades and smart bombs. Yes, nukes may kill nastily. But, so does napalm.
Beyond that, nobody has conventional weapons tech like we do. (On the other hand, Lind doesn’t discuss the cheapness of rogue planes, and how this has to tempt other countries.)
