Why is detection at the port of entry considered any kind of effective prevention? Load a freighter with a bomb, enter New York Harbor and explode the bomb even as the sirens of detection are going off and you have killed millions of people.

Shipping doesn’t work that way, all ships are prescreened prior to arrival at other ports. Additionally, a nuke of small size would not destroy an area much bigger than the Port of LA. Not saying it wouldn’t be bad but it would not be destructive to the city of LA.
