It is my belief (and in some ways a perverse hope) that such an attack would see the end of Liberal culture (the AufgeblasenBlutegelBourgeoisieBurokraten) in the US, along with the return to the basic agrarian, proto-industrial society that gave birth to the nation.

Coupled with this would be the rise of a volunteer militia the likes of which the world has never seen, spelling the end of foreign invasion, whether Mexican, Muslim or those pesky Canucks who are always trying to sneak in over the Northern Border.

An invading Sino/Eurasian or Muslim army would learn to rue well the prophetic words of Isoroku Yamamoto.

Not only an end to liberal culture but the beginning of the balkanization of the northern hemisphere.
