Personally I'd look at doing a deal with the French. AIUI they know they
only have to be able to nuke Berli^H^H^H whatever the target might be
once, rather than Moscow 137 times or whatever.

Apparebntly french nukes are highlyh sophisticated. The warhead splits at
the apex of its trajectory into individual bombs and then at lower
altitude
each bomb releases a white flag that also doubles as a parachute so they
don't get hurt when they land.

I suspect Boltar has been influenced by the Republican Party's tantrum
when the French sensibly declined to join in Bush's "Let's not worry
about catching Bin Laden and get Saddam instead for the hell of it."
