<br/><br/> In Libya, Colonel Muammar al-Qaddafi has secretly, painstakingly succeeded, with the help of borrowed and stolen Western technology and his immense oil revenues, in constructing a three-megaton nuclear device.<br/>His target is not Jerusalem, but New York; his aim is to hold the city for ransom against the establishment of an autonomous Palestinian state. If he does not get his way, the bomb, smuggled into the country and hidden, will go off in thirty-six hours, killing millions of New Yorkers.<br/>There are just 36 hours to save 8,000,000 people from a threat they can't even be warned about - a threat that could be happening as you read this...
