They would hardly need nukes to bring down our economy if that were their real goal. If BinShitHead has/had the money everyone says he did, then he could easily infiltrate the stockmarkets/monetary systems and wreak havoc.

This idiot was right about the service economy, but he was missing what makes it all possible. Communications. You wanna do some real damage to moral and the economy. Go after communications, TV/RAdio/Phone/ATM/INTERNET. One of our strengths is the ability to communicate and organize quickly. Like in any war, cut the comm and you cause disarray.

Take away the boobtube, now that would be terrorism at its worst!

The internet is a distributed network. It was originally designed to survive a nuclear war. It won't be all that easy to take out, even if one goes for a "soft" rather than "hard" kill. I think it was tried a couple of weeks ago, and the "attack" was barely noticible to the average user, if it was noticiable at all.
