It would be the worst mistake the muslims every made. The government wouldn't be able to overcome the inertia for retaliation. Anyone who would stand in the way of retribution would be perceived as weak, and would be pushed aside as we sought vengeance. They might be able to destroy on our cities, but we have the capability to destroy entire regions with the push of a button. This may not make any sense to the fanatics. I like to use the hornet analogy. The hornets build a nest and are happy living their day to day existence. Until some jackass comes along and shoves a stick into it. Yes, the jackass may have killed some of the hornets, but all he really succeeded in doing is pissing the rest of the hornets off, who will make it their life's’ goal of stinging the jackass to death.

your words sound good, however remember that after 9/11, the US just got riled for a bit and then forgot.
