"However, I don't think they have to detonate one, or even have one in order to achieve some magnitude of success. Their stated intentions coupled with their past actions, and our perceptions and responses to those intentions and actions, are in fact achieving a slow and deleterious effect on our economy"

I think this bears repeating. We are losing the battle for the ECONOMY! Probably the major reason why they don't need to use nukes or even attack again, is the rate at which our economy is spiraling downward. "EOM" may be right, watch the price of gold (or more importantly silver). I fear our country is imploding! We are spending and have spent too much. Even Greenspan has began speaking publically regarding Social Security and even Freddie MAC and Fannie MAE - two much debt. All of these false alarms COST MONEY, raising the terror alert COSTS MONEY.
