Yes, I agree.

There is no way to insure 100% certainty of not having an attack.

I think it's almost a miracle and a testimony to our effectiveness in the WoT, that we haven't been attacked again since 9-11.

I think that's the author's point too.

Yes in the asymmetric WOT we are in now, MAD is not the answer but TAD is(their assured destruction).

Also X out all dirty bombs. Chemical weapons etc, they might try to pull off if they thought the 'bang' was enough and they had the network setup to pull it off. That would be tough though I think.

If they do get a uranium bomb, I think they will will try to get it over one of the east coast cities in a civilian airliner.
