You know...just being totally theoretical here, but...
A suitcase nuke could do it, and a strike on an American carrier at sea is about the only way you could use a nuke and not get overwhelmingly negative world reaction while establishing your credibility as a major threat. You'd get condemnation, of course, but nowhere near what you'd get if you nuked Boston, for example. If al-qaeda is more world opinion savvy than they seem, it would be a way to go.
All random speculation, of course.
