A Quick Nuclear Weapons Pop Quiz
As we make noises about attacking Iran because of its alleged nuclear weapons program, a pop quiz:
1. How many countries that possess a nuclear weapon have ever used one against another country?
2. How many countries that possess a nuclear weapon have ever used one against another country that possesses a nuclear weapon?
3. How many “nuclear” countries that the United States has deemed “crazy” or “irrational” at some point or other of time have ever used one against another country?
4. How many countries that possess a nuclear weapon have ever given them to a terrorist group?
5. If — IF — Iran builds a nuclear weapon, how many will it have? How many will Israel have? How many will the United States have?
If you don’t know the answer to all of these questions, please stop talking about Iran’snuclear threat.
