I'm sure this was the official stance back then,and it could still be the official stance today for all I know. The truth is the official stance is sometimes more of a political stance than one based on reality.

Thank you for your input, sneakywillis.

Ike was extremely PO'd at the French over Suez and how they managed to damn near drag the US into a nuclear confrontation in Europe. He was afraid that actually having nukes would make DeGaulle even more reckless.

You never let known facts get in the way of your ranting, do you?
