McArthur was fired for the strong push to use them in Korea.

We got away with using them once, and for a variety of reasons. Use ‘em again, even the small ones, and a precedent is set.

I’m not saying it would be bad, but it would change the worlds geopolitical culture regarding the use of nukes.

BTW, this site is pretty cool. It shows just how little physical damage nukes actually do (compared to what most people think they do):

ALL weapon types are used eventually.

We should have let Taiwan take back china decades ago we would have avoid Korea, Vietnam and what is to come.
