"I am for deterring their move to nuclear weapons because of what it will unleash in the arab middle east."

What? 2 countries with bombs? When I hear you start telling Israel they need to get rid of theirs, I'll think you serious about wanting to stabilize the ME.

Deter? How about we tell them, in 18 months, cuz we don't talk to them now, that if they ever develop a bomb, and if they ever have a first use, they disappear? And how about we tell Israel the same thing? And South Africa?
