Using nukes is a deterrent. In Russia this summer they reminded me that the US is the only country to ever use nukes. And it hit me that that is precisely the point. Using them shows that you have the guts to do it and may do it again. Maybe you are that NFL middle linebacker with the craxy look in his eyes. One not to be fooled with. There are other weapons that are just as dangerous as nukes, maybe more so. Remember the fire bombing of Dresden and Hannover. A German described it to me in one word - "Kaput!"
