if you envision a bunch of terrorists with automatic weapons and grenades simultaneously attacking sites all over a city

Ah, but which city?

New York and D.C. are obvious targets, but...

Boston for its history...

Chicago would be a poke in the eye at Obama..

SF for being so gay...

Our SpecOp guys, especially Delta and Seal Team 6, do more than you think in way of preparation for this type of stuff. And although I generally detest the proliferation of SWAT teams, this is precisely the mission for which John Nelson and Daryl Gates enviosned them during the early 1970s when he invented the concept, instead being misused during the so-called “War on Drugs” and for raiding private properties, i.e. Waco and Ruby Ridge.

The terrorists are devising countermeasures to our centralized defense techniques. The solution is diffuse defense.

I agree, but the solution will never be allowed to happen here. I need only to point to the foolishness surrounding any of the school or college shooting sprees to make my point. Liberals are insane and delusional to the point of making self defense a crime. They demonize the inanimate tools and coddle criminals and terrorists. Point out the Swiss Model for defense and they refuse to even believe the facts let alone reason.

“The basic strategy: use a large number of attackers to overwhelm a target city’s ability to respond, and then suddenly switch focus to high value targets and seize hostages.”

Damn if that doesn’t sound a little like the Obama/MSM strategy surrounding the 2008 election!

Ask General David Petraeus, who works with Muslims every day.

"There may be moderate muslims. But there is no moderate islam." Ibn Warriq.

To “nuke” Mecca would start a world wide war against every Muslim who exists

Honey, we're already at war with them. muzzies are either at your throat, or at your knees. There's no 'middle ground'. Period.

Destroy Mecca. Now.

Doesn't matter. Its a problem of logistics. It will take hours for the news to effect, assembling, transportation, Intel gathering, action planning, execution. Will take a day or more.

By then the execution of hundreds, or more, of citzens will have been compleated, and then the Islamic Gutterdamerung moment whereby the holy Islamic fighters ascent into heaven and join the other heros.

I didn’t say there were muzzies in star trek. What I said was, if we ever venture forth into the galaxy — ala star trek — we’ll probably never find a life form as despicable as a muzzie.

To the extent that they are ‘good’ they are non-muzzie. To the extent they are our friends, they are non-muzzie. The muzzie doctrine calls for DEATH for ‘non-believers’ and SLAVERY for women. That’s in the book. That’s what they all KNOW to be true.

And you know it too.

And I didn’t say nuke Mecca now. I said it’s an option that should be openly ON THE TABLE.

A large number of attackers? I have yet to read anything that says there were more than 15-20 gunmen.
