What is the idea of mutually assured destruction?
Mutually Assured Destruction is the concept that if someone attacks another they would respond by totally destroying the aggressor, but in the process of doing the destruction the original aggressor would be forced to totally destroy their original victim. Its acronym of MAD is very appropriate as it is mad to be the first aggressor as it would result in their own destruction. It is appropriate with respect to nuclear weapons as superpowers have enough of such weapons to totally destroy the others, and so none would start a nuclear war (to destroy someone) because the other side could/would respond in an equally destructive manner (destroying them).
Is mutually assured destruction based on the tit for tat game theory?
Yes. MAD is derived from the idea that when one side does something, the other side will attempt to do something at least as bad in return. Thus this escalating series of revenge will eventually destroy both sides.
