North Korea, Pakistan, India, South Africa & likely Israel didn't get bombed due to their enrichment programs.

There is a rumor that the USSR flirted with the idea of a pre-emptive strike on Mainland China to decapitate their nuclear program after the Sino-Soviet split. This did not happen obviously.

Iran didn't get bombed, although that may just be because other forms of sabotage were available.

Syria & Iraq on the other hand, yeah those got bombed. But it's not 100% a guarantee.

Stuxnet is still one of the wildest and best computer security stories out there.
