Nuclear weapons likely prevented >100M deaths in the last 50 years. Mutually Assured Destruction is the only reason we didn't have another hot world war since 1945.<p>If there were no nuclear weapons now, you'd have a full scale NATO/Russia war today and a US/China war in a few months.<p>Very ironically, Mahnattan Project heads should receive a few Nobel Peace prizes posthoumously.
