Nope-- Thats like going to the school playground and saying there is cake for anyone that has a gun. It doesn't make dividing the cake any easier, you just have more kids with guns
You don't get to 300 losses without being a pretty exceptional goaltender.-- Ben Kenobi speaking of Roberto Luongo

There's already an incentive to go nuclear. Having nukes!
Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...
There's a lot of disincentive to having nukes also. Sanctions pretty well suck.

So you're fine with having NK as a permanent member of the SC?

They should replace France with Japan, make a precedent for having a max of 5 permanent members. Germany isn't as globally influential as Japan, and France is just a spoiled little kid that should never have had a permanent position anyway.
I think this is a gimme show of political support to Japan. China would never allow Japan to assume a permanent council seat, so our support for them is at once meaningless to any real outcome and free of cost. France would also veto removing itself from the council.
I think the permanent seats should go to countries that are able to keep the peace inside their neighborhoods and to help keep the peace outside their neighborhoods. By choice and history, Germany is incapable of doing so. France is slightly better equipped. The UK is by far the best equipped to do so from Europe. Japan is starting to step up to the plate, but I wonder how many capabilities they will actually develop. India hasn't even proven itself capable of influencing its own neighborhood.
I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

Brevity is the soul of wit only if meaningful information is conveyed. See, e.g., Dinodoc.

I think it should be based on global influence and strength. By your rules Switzerland is the most qualified to be permanent member.
Roo? Can the Swiss put troops on the ground in any place other than Switzerland and Vatican City? I'm talking about quantities of expeditionary troops.
