About the title
In 2002, a Syrian farmer finds an atomic bomb on the Golan Heights that was lost by the Israeli air force during the Yom Kippur War in 1973, and sells what he thinks is just an ordinary bomb to arms dealer Olson for 400 dollars. Olson resells the bomb to Austrian neo-fascist Dressler. Meanwhile, Russian President Zorkin dies of a heart attack. The new president, Alexander Nemerov, is considered in Washington to be a hardliner.
