I always liked Israel's strategy on nukes. Most people assume they have them, but they never come right out and say so, nor do they brandish them like some other countries. If you really want the deterrent, that is the way to go.
In a way though, the anti-nuclear thing is a bit misleading. Countries like Japan and South Korea could develop a program very quickly if they wanted to. Not to mention other developed countries like Canada, Australia, South Africa (already had them I believe), and most of Europe.
