And if Hitler had a nuke, he wouldn't dare fire. As one would be fired back at Germany, leaving NO people let alone his work of a super race.
And my point was, if there was NO nuke, we would now be at war with Iraq, the terrorists, etc etc. There would be MORE fighting if nukes weren't around.

Speculating on what Hitler may or not have done is kinda pointless. Nor do I think retaliation would have been a deterrent. WWII still went on after the Firestorms of Dresden (granted not much longer) and that was only a conventional attack. BTW, Dresden was the single most destructive sortie of WWII with over 150K civilian casualties, more than Hiroshima and Nagasaki combined.
