Apparently a mexican convert to Islam was caught trying to build a dirty bomb for use on Chicago, after being sold out by one of the ragheads we caught in Afghanistan...
I hate to intrude, but, um, who exactly do we nuke or launch an airstrike on?

Kabul? Too late. Mecca? Yeah, that'd be smart. Not. Hey, I know! He's Mexican, so we could nuke Cancun!

This isn't like being attacked by a nation, it's more like being attacked by a multinational corporation, say, IBM. Suppose you found out that IBM was responsible for the WTC attack? Would you nuke Hartford, Connecticut? Maybe Atlanta too? After all, they have offices and employees in both locations, probably sympathizers there, too.


Have you guys read Mao? When a small faction is fighting the big opponent, they hide amongst the civilians. That way, when the big opponent retaliates and kills civilians, it provides more recruits to the cause.

The primary weapons of this war are going to be scary men in black jumpsuits in the middle of the night with suppressed MP-5's kicking in doors and doing unsavory things that you may never read about, bribes, informers, agents, assassins; not narrated airstrikes shown on Pay-Per-View between Hulk Hogan matches.
