Let's take it a little further:  why leave self-defense to _countries_? 
After all, we all know how flaky our own govt. can get.  Instead, let's
give nukes to ever _county_ and large city.  That way, if San Francisco
gets a little pushy, Fresno can just push a little button and "Voilla!" 
(as they say in Missouri), a larger Bay Area!

As far as _testing_ the things goes, every county east of the Mississippi
can test theirs _west_ of that river, and ever county _east_ of same can do
the opposite.  Hey, no problem!
