The MAD doctrine IMHO won't work against insane arab leaders that are ......Mad.

I agree on trashing any "individual" country that does launch WMD "first" be they chemical, biological or nuclear.

Slap em down like the mad dogs they are.......

Stay Safe !

True,but not all of his top generals and others are insane enough to allow him (ANY him,including Saddam)to commit national suidice,which is what a WMD attack on Israel or the US would end up being. If a leader gave a order to launch the nukes in a first strike,his own top people would have no choice but to assassinate him in self-defense.
