What is needed is some variation of the MAD policy of the Cold War. A nuclear attack on the US by Islamic terrorists should be met with a nuclear response from the US aimed at the heart of Islam with nuclear strikes on Mecca and Medina. I have heard that Israel has such an Armageddon plan.
MAD won't work with fundamental Muslims who are willing to die killing us Infidels, when they believe they will get an eternal reward with God(Allah)
We have seen plenty of examples of that recently.
Killing us Infidels is not their idea, it is God's idea.(Allah)- Tom
