    The US had total air and naval superiority in Afghanistan, so them having a nuke is irrelevant.

    The US also did not “lose” in Afghanistan, but people always turn into dipshits when that’s brought up.

        The vast majority of countries with nukes have a functioning navy and air force, which means they have a theoretical delivery system for those nukes.

        The US, as an example, would absolutely go to war with Pakistan if geopolitical factors necessitate it.
