Iraq and North Korea have suddenly gained possession of land mobile launched ICBMs; Soviet made SS-22s. The President starts to mobilize his forces as best he can. The only solution is an ultimate nuclear terror. The U.S. deploys its own land mobile launched ICBM the MX Missile Defense System. The President enlists the help of the Commonwealth of Independent States to augment the U.S. forces in keeping the Iraqis and the North Koreans in check.
