A Nuclear Iran: The Case for Action
By Clay Varney
Since August 9, 1945 no nuclear weapon has been deployed in warfare. Despite the tensions and volatile events such as the Cuban Missile Crisis and the Berlin Blockade, which might have precipitated such a use, the catastrophe of a subsequent nuclear attack has not occurred. Though it was widely assumed that an eventual nuclear exchange between the US and USSR was likely, cooler heads on both sides acted to ratchet down crises that might have escalated to a dangerous degree. At the outset of the Cold War, there was no clear reason to believe another attack would not have been the case. This of course begs the question, if so many states now possess nuclear weapons, why have they not been employed?
