I continue to worry that our jihadi enemies might manage to acquire a nuclear weapon and detonate one in an American city.
But given our experience since Operation Iraqi Freedom began, shouldn't Arab citizens be more worried?
Consider that we've made it clear we will retaliate with nukes if we are nuked. Any state considering helping jihadis will have to think twice about aid unless the state is controlled by complete nutballs. That is quite possible.
But absent that, when you consider that jihaids have slaughtered far more Moslems than American or even Westerners with all manner of cruel methods, shouldn't we contemplate whether Cairo is more at risk than Charleston or Washington, D.C.?
Especially when you consider that jihadis will be lucky to have one nuke, will they try to penetrate our defenses? Or will they light up Cairo, which is filled with Moslems "unworthy" of al Qaeda since they do not rise up in revolt.
Jihadis aren't too particular about who they kill. Convenient victims are much better than perfect (American) victims. The more I think about it, the more likely I think that a Moslem city will be the first victim of a jihadi atomic weapon.
So how do we respond to that?
