VIENNA (Reuters) - Thirteen years after the end of the Cold War the two main candidates for the U.S. presidency agree that the threat of nuclear attack has never been greater.

The biggest nuclear shock of 2004 was the discovery of a global black market run by Pakistani scientist Abdul Qadeer Khan that supplied sensitive atomic technology and know-how to Iran, Libya and North Korea -- and possibly other countries.

That has made proliferation an important campaign issue of the U.S. campaign, with Democrats and Republicans exchanging verbal blows over who is most fit for the task of confronting rogue nations and preventing them from getting the bomb.
