most of them aimed at the major industrial, military, and population centers of the United States. These warheads were situated on sophisticated land, sea, and air-based delivery systems that posed a significant threat to the survival of the United States and Western Europe.
As compared to the resources possessed by those states, the %u201CIslamic Fascists%u201D have nothing. Only one Muslim country, Pakistan possesses nuclear weapons, and that country%u2019s handful of nuclear warheads is neutralized by India%u2019s larger and more sophisticated nuclear arsenal, as well as Israel%u2019s estimated 200-300 nuclear bombs.

As for non-state %u201CIslamic Fascists%u201D they possess neither a nuclear weapon nor any delivery systems.

Such an eventuality itself is less credible than any random act of terrorism that may emanate from an unimaginable array of actors. As last year%u2019s shootings in Montreal and a rash of school shooting sprees throughout the United States demonstrate, any stray lunatic is capable of engaging in
