If the Terrorists attack the homeland in an attempt to get a wishy washy guy like Kerry elected they will not win. The US is not EUROPE, we don't cowar in fear from terrorists... afraid they will target us if we prosecute them..... We will beat them back just as we have the communists and the nazis and the facists and empirial Japan... etc etc etc....
What plays in Europe doesn't play here.... sort of the reason we told the old world to get bent a long time ago.
Unless we're Michael Moore and the democrats. In that case, we would sympathize with them.
