Context for U.S. Reassurance Strategies: Israel; BibliographyAs Iran's nuclear program evolves, U.S. decision makers will confront a series of critical policy choices involving complex considerations and policy trade-offs. These policy choices could involve dissuading Iran from developing nuclear weapons; deterring Iran from using its nuclear weapons, if it were to acquire them; and reassuring U.S. regional partners. The U.S. Air Force will need to prepare to carry out whatever policies are chosen.Rand Corporation monograph series.Nuclear arms controlIranNuclear weaponsIranIranForeign relationsUnited StatesIranStrategic aspectsUnited StatesForeign relationsIranUnited StatesMilitary policyNuclear arms controlNuclear weapons355.02/170955Davis Lynn E(Lynn Etheridge),1943-247573Project Air Force (U.S.)MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910140977603321Iran's nuclear future2448171UNINA
