I am sorry that I am just not convinced. I wonder how sophisticated a
terrorist 
nation needs to be to accomplish its dirty work. The non-fusion explosives
used 
on Hiroshima and Nagasaki did significant damage and were delivered by
airplanes 
(no missiles, ballstic or guided)
Assuming that Iran really wants to use a nuclear explosive, it might be more

cost-effective for them to deliver it on the back of a truck, or on a boat.

Sorry, wrong link..... try this :

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boosted_fission_weapon 
The combination of reduced weight in relation to yield and immunity to
radiation has ensured that most modern nuclear weapons are fusion-boosted.
.......
According to one weapons designer, boosting is mainly responsible for the
remarkable 100-fold increase in the efficiency of fission weapons since
1945.[5]
