I think you are very naive if you think the images of survivors didn’t do anything to prevent nuclear war. Of course there is no “evidence” because how could you prove something like this. Also it’s your own bias and perhaps your politics that leads you to believe that I’m rationalizing.
I didn't say that images didn't do anything. In addition, I would expect someone to call me naive, not for what I wrote, but rather if I'd thought that what stops powerful people from doing horrible things are images of suffering civilians.

I can't read this in any other way than just speculation for which the primary purpose is to act as a comforting rationalization to what happened.
