Here's what I THINK they are counting on (assuming the nuke threat is real)..
- They detonate 1, 2 or a "few" nukes in major US cities
- Possible addition of bio/chem, with stolen prop planes
- The US goes berserk, wiping out select ME targets (Iran)
- US moves to take control of Saudi Oil and key resources
- Russia/China hits us in retaliation/pre-emption
These guys, quite simply, are trying to start WWIII - and they may just succeed.
Actually, I am not entirely convinced that it's "just" AQ. I've read some pretty compelling evidence that Russia and/or China are the puppet masters to the whole thing, and that we are in the early phases of one very nasty chess game. (See Nynquist [sp], for instance at "the Final Phase").
IF AQ succeeds in a WMD attack, they will have help.

Can you share this compelling evidence?

Add Iran to Russia/China.

As I understood it, we couldn't really nuke countries in retaliation against acts of terror, because they weren't really connected to them. Do we know if al-Qaeda is working with Iran? I don't really know if we'd go berserk exactly. I'd see threats first. Demanding countries to give up terrorists or face the consequences. But either way, if Russia and China are behind everything, it wouldn't exactly matter.

I believe Russia is the puppet master and if anyone knows this best it is Condi. I feel good, once again with her at the helm!
