海湾战争中没有核武器爆炸。在最明显的意义上，它们没有被使用，事实上，自长崎以来就没有使用过它们。这个简单的事实可能是最重要的一个。想象一下，如果战术核弹头被任何人引爆，那会是一件多么伟大的事情？比如，从美国人可能使用的大量核弹头中引爆十几枚，或者从以色列人拥有的较小的弹头中引爆几枚，甚至是萨达姆·侯赛因指挥的一枚。这样的事件会以三种截然不同的方式改变中东的未来和核危险的未来吗？而且不是往好的方向发展。
No nuclear weapons exploded in the Gulf War. In the most obvious sense they were not used, as indeed they have not been used since Nagasaki. This simple fact may be the most impor tant one. Consider how great an event it would have been if tactical nuclear warheads had been exploded by anyone?say a dozen from the very large number that Americans could have used, or a few from the smaller set owned by the Israelis or even one by the command of Saddam Hussein. In three quite different ways such events would have changed both the future of the Middle East and the future of nuclear danger? and not for the better.
