Major powers with nukes aren't as dangerous, but more importantly, the sanctions are more to keep the total numbers of countries with nuclear missiles down. The US is certainly abusing its power (and has, and will continue to) but we don't use nukes. We made it through the Cold War without launching them. Little countries have less to lose and are more likely to have unstable rulers or violent power struggles.
I mean, if more countries there have access to nuclear bombs, how long would it be until one was 'accidentally' stolen by some group? Bye-bye Israel, it was nice knowing you.
