You prob hit the nail on the head biftek.
It's the same with many areas and generally these are hypocritical, but can once in a while be truthful - as often as a broken clock tells the truth every 12 hours.
Issues of nuclear capability are the same - those who possess nuclear weapons don't want others to possess them - and often on the basis "we know best". The current holders of nuclear capability can't be trusted with shit - some of them can barely run their own countries with any competence. Despite attempts to avoid the spread of nuclear capability - it's easy to see why others may want these weapons when they see the idiots who have them.
