I seriously hope this post is sarcastic... Otherwise I would feel compelled to ask which part of "mutually assured destruction" does not imply that the destruction would be mutual.
They could retaliate as soon as they detect missiles going their way, before even being hit. And they could still retaliate after being hit, because it is unlikely you would destroy every nuclear base of them at once.
