First of all Hitler was very clear in Mein Kampf so you are wrong about that. As for Mad, conventional wisdom says it worked well. But do you remember the Cuban Missile Crisis? We came so very close and it wasnt until the red phone era that followed along with the realzation on both sides on how close total world destruction had come did folks back off. There is no red phone in Tehran and they dont have the reality check in place that the US and Soviets got back in 1962. And the US may have forgotten the lesson, given the preemp;tion doctrine and our status as the worlds only superpower.
