@gve; the USA certainly does NOT stockpile nukes for peaceful purposes - Hiroshima and Nagasaki informed the World of US values and intentions.
Trump's decision to renege on the Nuclear deal President Obama negotiated with Iran and his unilateral declaration that Netanyahu's Regime owns Jerusalem together with his movement of the US Embassy there is the root cause of current tensions.
Trump's disruptive pro-Israel interventions are not going down at all well and may well already have inspired new versions of 911.
