Russia or the USSR first deployed the Neutron bomb and the US got the technology from them. If a Jewish Russian scientist did the research then so be it.

To quantify the difference in nuclear and neutron bombs, one leaves behind a radiation footprint similar to Chernobyl. The other, the neutron bomb allows an occupying force to re-enter the detonation zone at a period of six weeks without danger to humans. The buildings can be used again. But with a nuclear bomb you can create a radiation zone or belt that makes it impossible to traverse if only 200-miles wide without the humans dying. Both bombs create radiation that kills within 1-4 days. The beauty of the neutron bomb is that it can be fired from artillery and is very small compared to nuclear delivery systems.
