19. Okay....
Let's use some logic here. Let's say for the sake of argument that Israel didn't have nuclear weapons, and Iran got nuclear weapons.

Iran nukes Tel Aviv. The US only responds diplomatically, because two wrongs don't make a right. But essentially the lack of response tells Iran that they can wipe out the rest of the country, because they know the US will not respond. So essentially the lack of response has cost lives, instead of saved them. How is that justified?
