Quote: . . . I still don't think they would have fired a nuke.I think you're right. For one thing, Israel does not need to use nukes to achieve any of its objectives and using nukes would cost them too much political capital. Israel's nuclear capability is an insurance policy. If their enemies ever get to the point of completely destroying Israel, the nuclear capability will ensure that they are not the only ones destroyed. MAD on a small scale.
Quote:I'm much more worried about Pakistan or India firing a nuke . . .I've been expecting this for over a decade. Perhaps they are more stable than you give them credit for.
Quote:North Korea would fire one off too because Lil' Kim is insane . . .Too true.
