BTW those nukes came there by the "ended" program that was called "Atoms for peace".
 Quoting: grumpier
Iran, Israel and Pakistan are synonymous with peace. chuckle
"Atoms for Peace" was the title of a speech delivered by U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower
to the UN General Assembly in New York City on December 8, 1953.
I feel impelled to speak today in a language that in a sense is new – one which I, who have spent so much of my life in the military profession, would have preferred never to use.

That new language is the language of atomic warfare.

The United States then launched an "Atoms for Peace" program that supplied
equipment and information to schools, hospitals, and research institutions
within the U.S. and throughout the world.

The first nuclear reactors in Iran, Israel and Pakistan were built
under the program by American Machine and Foundry, a company
more commonly known as a major manufacturer of bowling equipment.
...
The United States would be more than willing--it would be proud
to take up with others "principally involved" the development
of plans whereby such peaceful use of atomic energy would be expedited.

Of those "principally involved" the Soviet Union must, of course, be one.

AMF Always Means Fun
chuckle
AMF became a major part of what would soon be referred to by
US President Dwight D. Eisenhower as "the military-industrial complex" after World War II.

In the late 1950s, the company's vice-chairman was Walter Bedell Smith.
He was formerly a US major general, Eisenhower's wartime chief-of-staff,
and Harry Truman's Ambassador to the Soviet Union.
He later became the fourth Director of the Central Intelligence Agency.
