Once we develop fusion weapons (by which I mean ones that don't need a fission detonator) Nuclear war will become more likely. Correct me if I'm wrong but with Fusion there is no radiation. No fallout means no reason not to nuke the enemy as long as they don't have any.
The easiest way to see that is untrue is to look up. The Sun is a fusion reaction and produces and extreme amount of radiation of most types.

Fusion bombs are clean-er-, not clean.
