Nuclear retaliation

[petertong]

We threatened to nuke Argentina if France didn't give us the codes to disarm them iirc then they did.

I find that pretty hard, when they only had a few.

Would you want our country to retaliate in kind and detonate a nuclear weapon killing ten of thousands of innocent people?

No.

It would only make the problem larger, digging the hole deeper if you like.

Margaret Thatcher forced François Mitterrand to give her the codes to disable Argentina's deadly French-made missiles during the Falklands war by threatening to launch a nuclear warhead against Buenos Aires
