I'd hardly call contingency planning warmongering.  Saber rattling doesn't 
apply either; because both warmongering and saber rattling refer to a public 
display of force.  This article refers to a classified document which is not 
a public document. It was not created to encourage war, or incite one, nor 
was it made to frighten our enemies.  I'm sure that the document was 
declassified because only an complete idiot would believe we did not have 
such a plan in place against EVERY nuclear powered nation regardless of our 
current relations.

Plus a country that likes to lob test nukes over another country shouldn't 
complain.
