One method would be to drop a nuke in a welded watertight capsule from the bottom of a ship when it was in a US port with a timer or other detonation device. Such a nuke could already have been dropped while the ship was in harbor.

Agreed. The sea bottom along the path of the ship should be checked for anything unusual. Chances are the plan of terrorists would be to retrieve the "package(s)" at a later time.

An underwater drop would be simple to do.

Heck, a few years ago we found a damn 100+' SUBMARINE being built high up in Colombia for shipping cocaine to the USA! It was built in segments for road transport and assembly at the coast and was almost ready. A SUBMARINE.

Getting WMD into the USA is a joke. One 40 foot shipping container could be the equivalent of 20 OKC bombs, and set with a GPS trigger to detonate when crossing a certain bridge, or when being trucked across a city. (98% of containers are offloaded by automated cranes and never looked at inside until they reach Walmart etc.)
