They were always intended to have nukes, to cover the unfriendly Arabs, Afghanistan (which was under Russian rule back then) and Pakistan, where NATO had no jurisdiction. Had to protect the oil, you know - or burn it up before the bad guys got any. Had to make sure nothing was allowed to impede climate change. This goes quite a long way back, to the very installation of the Jewish state to nail down that region for the allies.
