What do the Islamofascists have to lose? Nothing, and that's the problem. The Islamic world is a pile of crap from 1400 years of mismanagement, meanwhile the west has been prospering. Destroying the world might even be a goal for some of these terrorist scum, the superiority of the west cannot coexist with Allah's teachings.

If the terrorists want to ensure that there would be no retaliation, they would have to destroy not only our major cities, but also our bombers, our land-based missile systems, our complete command and control network, and our nuclear submarines. Or, our will and ability to retaliate. Don't we have to ask permission of France and CAIR first, and Harry Reid et al.?

We currently have Poseiden Nuclear Submarines on patrol in the Indian Oceanumm, i dont think so. Maybe Trident but not Poseiden.

I was going to ask the author of this piece, "what target are you going to nuke?"
So we vaporize a rock... so what.

For starters. Then Medina, Qom.
To: Hillary'sMoralVoid
Ummm...don't wanna rain on your parade or anything, guy, but Poseidon was retired a long time ago. And, we never had a SSBN capable of throwing "50 missiles". Current SSBN's (Trident) carry 24 SLBM's; some MIRVed with 6 heads, others with 8 and a few carry only one. We also have the SSN fleet with SLCM capability that can carry nuke heads if deployed in that manner.
As to your general thesis, no American president will ever authorize nuclear release authority unless a terrorist WMD can be publically and specifically traced to an actual foreign government who provided the direct logistical support.

Suitcase nukes are an urban myth.

I've got bad news for you: The destruction of Mecca is a prophesy to the end times. At the rate Islamofascists are going, it's a self-fulfilling prophesy, because at the rate they're going, we're going to destroy it sooner or later. My question is, will its destruction make them stronger or weaker?

Ok, a suitcase nuke has just vaporized lower Manhatten, whom do you propose to retaliate against?

The temple has to be rebuilt on the Dome of the Rock first, though, right?
To: MrB
So we vaporize a rock... so what. Good question. Ask a Muslim. Note the response. Nufsed.

Suitcase nukes are an urban myth. Actually, not. Whether any are still functional is a question, but it would take major support to keep any of them ready to go. Whether the bad guys actually possess any is unknown. Anything is possible.

Good point. People who have nothing to lose are dangerous because they just don't give a damn.
If you're living in and on an anthill, you don't even know the benefits or reason for a law abiding society or culture.
Everyone has to make some sacrifice for an orderly and safe society. We all benefit from a certain amount of sacrifice so you can walk down the street safely.
