Probablity of a Nuclear attack?

I know this is controversial but really i want to hear every ones opinions. What is the probability of a Nuclear attack? I mean are there any words of threat? and really will we even be warned if there were any. Im just really interested in these kind of things.

Update:

haha "Damn Right & Rebel Proud" your answer is intriguing ... Lol die of a virus reminds me of movies that start with a nuclear wipeout, which causes radiation illness thus creating flesh eating zombies or super mutants and a band of heroes wanting to survive..I shall do the same, Except with a jack daniel in one hand, I'll have a shot gun in the other..if i can get a hold of one..(I am in Britain than again)

    According to a report from Jeff Nyquist, expert on Russian and Communist military and foreign policy, and author of "Origins of the Fourth War" has indicated that if an American city is nuked by Islamic terrorists, don't believe it... it will have been Islamic mercenaries operated by Spesnatz (Russian Special Forces)... His information comes from ex-KGB defectors and the former head of the KGB during the Cold War...

    As for Pakistan... it is a possibility if Al Qaeda and the Taliban get their hands on Paki's nukes... The Islamic terrorists have already stated that getting their hands on nukes is their goal...

    As for North Korea... their all talk, and no action... They are just blowing wind... They are just embarrassed that the last long range missile they fired was a disaster...so know they are just acting and talking tough...

    Don't fret yourself over theories or overblown rhetoric from mindless impotent drones, like Obama and Biden who continue to spread fear mongering about everything... We'll all die of some out of control virus or disease before anyone has the balls to push the button...

    So, if and when it does happen... I'll get me a big bottle of Jack Daniels and a lawn chair, sit in the driveway and get blind drunk as the world ends and laugh my a** off and say "good riddance to bad rubbish!"

    Overall there is probably a very small threat of nuclear attack. However, most states will continue to try to gain nuclear arms in order to feel secure. If one country (such as North Korea) were to attack us or another country, then that would result in nuclear retaliation, etc. until the damage would be catastrophic.

    Every time another little pi$$ ant country gets in the mood for a power grab, the chances go up. But not necessarily from a missile. They are much more likely to just walk the bomb in to a big city, inside a box. No one has the ability to know exactly what is going on in another country, so our best course is to watch for them to make a mistake, then do what ever is needed to stop them.

    Well seeing as how North Korea decided its time to stop being the anus of Earth and started to piss everyone off, i would say that the possibility went from a 1/10 to a 8/10.

    Conventional wars are more likely. A nuclear holocaust is only a last and very desperate resort. I don't see that happening yet.

    North Korea Testing should be a clue.

    United States will always be a "Sleeping Giant."

    The Bigger you are, the Harder you fall.

    We (as in the U.S. ) are in debt to these people; they want their MONEY!

    They could call in their debt or OWN the U.S. as collateral.

    The way see things....Do you speak chinese?
