mutually assured destruction

Difficult to define exactly, but it's not the actual *name* of a situation or doctrine. Rather, it describes the outcome of a given action in the circumstances:

In the case of the US and USSR, their shared determination to retaliate to an attack by the other - given the size of their nuclear arsenals - would've assured mutual destruction.

mutually assured destruction

The outrightly suicidal strategy of nations protecting themselves from nuclear (or, in more recent days, chemical or biological) attack by preparing enough weapons to reduce the attacking country to rubble even as they are themselves wiped out.

Basically, if you're going to be screwed over, make sure the rest of the world is, too.

During the Cold War, the US and the USSR built massive stockpiles of nuclear weapons while following a strategy of mutually assured destruction

point of destruction

when arguing with a parent, this is the point where the parent clearly knows that she has lost, and pulls her rank as an adult with a classic parent phrase, ie. "I will wash your mouth out with soap", "i said no. You dont need a reason why!". Once these phrases are said, it is clear the child has won the parents argument in their head, but will be beat because of their authority.

Dude, my mom was obviously at the point of destruction when we were arguing and she told me to go to my room!
