The Senate never ratified the 1996 treaty. But like other nations, the United States abides by treaties it has signed, even if they have not been ratified.

Then what is the purpose of ratification by the United States Senate if the United States Federal Government just "abides by treaties it has signed"? Clinton signed the Kyoto Treaty, but NEVER submitted to the United States Senate since he knew that the necessary 2/3rds of the Senate would never ratify the treaty. It means nothing until ratification, and the Executive branch can make a show of following any treaty provisions, but they have no force of law, only what the Congress allows the Executive branch to get away with via greatly expanded definitions of "Executive Orders".

Fallout is bad bad bad. I like the other idea of dropping steel rods from space.

National Review has had a number of articles on this subject (arguing for the development of new nuclear munitions; posted here at FR) over the last 2 years.
