He argues that while good sense has kept other rogue nations from using the atom bomb, Iran, "undeterred by the usual calculations of prudence and self-preservation," cannot be trusted to respond that way. But Iranians are not suicidal. They know that they could be wiped out in a retaliatory attack. And Krauthammer neglected to mention that only the U.S. has used the Bomb.
