I do.

When we talk about nuclear weapon development, you have to understand how far behind a country new to the game would be. You cant hide nuclear reactors. The switches not to mention the plutonium arent easy to get.
Since we are playing hypotheticals, lets just say the country became nuclear (which is way far from reality but regardless). In order to be a threat the US, do you realize what type of technology goes into an ICBM? They couldnt even hit Israel right with scuds and they arent that far away. How would you expect them to deliver said missile ten thousand miles away and have it work once it got here? And they are going to develop this type of technology in the dark under US surveillance and what would stop the US from bombing any reactor that was developed anyway? We owned the skies over there didnt we?
Wmd's were always a smokescreen.
