Conventional weapons can be targeted and their destructive effects can be limited to only legitimate targets of war. This is in contrast to weapons of mass destruction, such as nuclear weapons, whose effects cannot be limited in space and time. World War I and World War II were primarily fought with conventional weapons, not nuclear weapons. Therefore, option A and D are incorrect.
