Well yeah, we just demonstrated exactly why they need nukes and also why negotiating with the US is completely pointless. Look at Ukraine, they gave up their nukes. Getting destroyed for it. NK, biggest assholes on the planet that threaten to destroy others constantly, never get bombed. Iran, agrees to US deals, gives up a ton of uranium, then has the deal ripped up by a future leader and gets bombed anyways. The lesson is clear to the world; if you want to avoid getting bombed or invaded by another sovereign nation, develop nukes. Security deals are meaningless.
