Hopefully we'll never have to. But if a terrorist organization detonated a nuclear device over the U.S. and we could determine a responsible rogue regime, I imagine we would retaliate in kind.
I think it's possible for a terror organization to do this, and in additon to killing hundreds of thousands of Americans with radiation, it would shut down most normal communications in the U.S., paralyzing our economy. The Democrats don't seem to understand the consequences of losing in Iraq, which is the key battle in the war on terror. The Democrats in Congress are undermining our troops, giving aid and comfort to the enemy: treason defined. The penalty for treason should be death by hanging.
In fact it's part of in-place nuclear protocol.
Strong words and the truth. Dittos.
Treason has become a thing of the past in our polite society. At least until the left takes complete control. Then it'll be back with a vengeance.
