>They, including Israel, typically develop them for defensive purposes only. Unlike Iraq and other terrorists organizations. Much of this came out of good intentions with funding anyone who opposed the old Soviet Union. In this case, a country that opposed Iran.
Another question that has been puzzling me :
Iraq may or may not have WMD & definitely no possibility of targeting the US & to my knowledge, hasn't openly threetened to attack the US.
N.Korea either has or is extremely close to having nuclear weapons (not for defensive purposes) & has the capability of targeting the US & has actually threatened a pre-emptive strike.
Why is diplomacy the only way to resolve the issue with N.Korea & war the only way to deal with Iraq.
