I think these regimes will use their Nuclear weapons on us regardless of our "Nuclear Deterrent". They will probably see it as their duty or they have probably been told by Allah that is is acceptable regardless of their own demise.
So under those circumstances all bets are off as the MAD doctrine doesn't work.
No.........I think the only defence would be a unilateral pre-emptive nuclear strike on all these mad regimes before they acquire these weapons.
