dial-a-death

by ensuring greater precision in bombing “enemy” targets, reducing the yield of a nuclear blast (a “dial-a-yield” feature), and making a nuclear attack more “thinkable,” the B61 Model 12 is actually a more "humanitarian" and credible weapon than older, bigger versions. 

“minimizing civilian casualties if deterrence fails is both a more credible and a more ethical approach.”
