NUMEC: How Israel Stole the Atomic Bomb and Killed JFK. Terrorists took advantage of the massive weapons surplus following the end of WWII and created lucrative black-markets for illegal arms trafficking many of which went to ethno-fascist fanatics who created the state of Israel. The weapons theft would escalate to Highly Enriched Uranium for nuclear bombs and the assassination of a US president.

However, with the world now gripped by nuclear weapons, we exist constantly on the edge of mankind's total destruction.
