I agree. Having an ICBM and using is are two different things. The US is mostly flyover country, so a hit on a population center is not a guarantee. On the other hand, our nuclear missiles are capable of hitting a particular city block and we have enough to make Iran a bad memory.
A nuke in a container ship is a much bigger threat to America.
2 or 3 high altitude EMP strikes in the Northern US (the magnetic field of the Earth bends the EMP wave further south) would probably cause much more damage than direct nuclear strikes on cities.
