Author's notes:

I wrote this one about 3 years ago and was inspired from a short research paper on WMDs(weapons of mass destruction) I submitted for one of my Political Sciences courses. This will come forward as an extremely pessimistic view of the situation but as long as this END remains a statistical probability and within the realms of possibility; I'll stand by it. This contest itself was a pleasant surprise and I am glad that I can share this one as a contest entry.

I don't want a political debate on this and nor do I wish to get into the entire "who started it/who'll potentially start it" discussion. Fact is that 8 countries have the capability and another one keeps trying. Whichever one of these slips/messes up, it will likely set off a chain reaction of chaos that we, the people of this earth, shall be unable to control.

History and it's countless wars provide sufficient evidence that we are more than capable of destroying each other even without the nuclear threat looming overhead. Bomb the hell out of each other all you want but pleaseâ?¦do it the normal way. Keep the biological/chemical/nuclear elements out of your self-serving or even the most righteous narratives. We are humans...we err...best to do it on a smaller scale.
