Nuke Son of Fear

Boxing is an art of combat motivated by reward and  governed by rules  of  the  game. Head batting and hitting below the belt are considered dirty fighting that leaves a sour taste in the mouth. It defies convention, decency and morals and are prohibited, sanctioned and penalized. But war is different all through out and the analogy lies on conventions or the manner by which each should be fought. Boxing and war have conventions but only the former is self-limiting in as far as damage is concerned. In the latter though conventions are in place, there is neither a referee to stop the erring contender or a crowd to boo the villainous act. There is no moral... no decency, on the contrary all the means were employed to bring about the greatest damage and destruction to the enemy, including the use of dreaded weaponry. The motivation is to end in victory, quickly! Conventions becomes guidelines reserved only for the vanguished. In war, acts were inhuman to savage. It deprived men of reasons as well as emotions and had turned them into the lowest of being. War is so horrendous and fearful a greater fear must exist to prevent it so that no one may venture into it again. It is one of the greatest folly man had brought upon himself. 

On this premise, amid the fear of subjugation and annihilation, that Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) and Nuclear Weapons were introduced in defiance of conventions and morality. The entities that possesses and wields them feared the lessons of history. These same entities knew that the use of these weapons will put an end to their adversary as well as themselves, yet they improve on its lethality and kept them in quantities that would rival the stars. This is the era of the great equalizer. Having these weapons allays the fear and discomfort. It consoles the spirit of the warrior. It is intended  to prevent war; to dissuade and frustrate adventurism; it is the face of the greater fear. It is never meant to be use, it is but a means to quell a Napoleonic appetite.

But when it is put to serve beyond its purpose; employed to bring devastation and death; to annihilate existence and all that the SUPREME BEING had gifted, there can never ever be any justification but lunacy, shaped by trepidation and surrender to a lesser fear.
