Nuclear War: Iran vs. Israel

This report from the Center for Strategic and International Studies is not strictly speaking a game report, but rather "the material used in a scenario analysis and interactive game that looks at some of the consequences of a future nuclear exchange between Israel and Iran, and the possible impact of its expansion to cover targets in Syria, Egypt, and the Gulf." Unfortunately, I can't find any details on the "interactive game," but the background materials are comprehensive and fascinating (if you're into nuclear weapons). The results from their analysis are presented as a quote from the movie Wargames: the only way to win is not to play. If anyone knows where I could find details about the "interactive game" they conducted, I would love to learn more about it.
