    I think it’ll strengthen everyone’s nuclear resolve. Strategic ambiguity (with the common knowledge that you are a nuclear state, like Israel) is pretty much the only option now.

    Iran was playing the game of “we aren’t a nuclear power, but we COULD be” wasn’t enough. Everyone sees that now. The only real deterrent is a literal nuke, now.
