But…dealing with nuclear scenarios on the level of a major nuclear attack, is distracting from the more likely possibility that the use of a full scale nuclear attack is not following the realistic trend of the use mini nukes and depleted uranium armour piercing projectiles.

A little spoken of reality is Israeli advanced production of mini nukes and its research since early sixties.

These were set up as a perimeter defence of Israel in the six day war.

Mini nukes will increasingly become the go to weapon of terrorists into the future, intent on forcing their hand against a powerless enemy; powerless in the sense of their ability to detect these bombs which can fit into a large back pack.

One of these detonated in a subway for example, will do the trick of maximising negotiations towards the terrorists advantage.
