I don't understand how someone would take any chance to live in a world where a terrorist nation run by religious fanatics have the nuclear bomb.
This is an extremely apt description of Israel and the US though?
Nonproliferation is pretty much failed though. Iran complied with some of the most onerous and invasive inspections of its nuclear program for years, and the US still unilaterally withdrew from the agreements and demonized them. So what is the benefit of complying at all?
