By the way, the “MAD” acronym was used quite extensively during the Cold War. But I figured (correctly, as it turned out) that some here may not be familiar with it, which is what I explained what it stood for in my original post.

The Cold War deterrence doctrine of MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction) doesn't work with madmen of either the KJU or Moslem varieties.

I have been familiar with MAD since probably before you were born. I highlighted the KJU part to clarify the acronym part of my question.
Kim Jung Un, the nut, is not enough a part of my normal consciousness ever to be on familiar terms with the nut.

Never in my long life did I ever dream that WMDs and insane tyrants would be so casually thrown around as say, tabloid fodder...
But thank you for the response.
