In 1346 The Tartars laid siege to Kaffa. During the siege an outbreak of plague infested their men. Before they left, the Tartars used catapults to throw the plague-infested bodies of their dead over the city walls. The plague spread through out the city. This was the first biological weapon and the first WMD used.
In 1945, July 16th, the US tested the first nuclear weapon at new mexico. On August 6th, the US used there second nuclear weapon against Hiroshima, Japan and the first nuclear weapon used in war.
During this time period, countries and terrorist around the world have been using these weapons and have been happening very often.
Therefore, the United Nations created treaties and conventions to stop these horrible moments. Over the past 60 years, these treaties and conventions have been ignored. These treaties and conventions need to ban WMD (weapons of mass destruction) completely because of the sarin gas attack in Japan, the Pakistan and India nuclear testing, and the anthrax outbreak in sverdlovsk, which proves that these treaties and conventions need to be improved.
