Really good article, Ward. I think we should also add the context these leaders operate in. That includes the institutional and human structures that manage both the run-up to nuclear weapons use (or accidental use) and the actual operationalization of their use. The collapse of the legal, moral, ethical and political structures is of great concern... as these have worked as breaks in the past. Understanding how we reinvest in the broader societal foundations for peace and conflict management should be a high priority
Very helpful analysis of a confused continuing connfusion.

Thank you, Andy.
