Will Political Correctness stop us from making others glow in the dark...?
There's only so much Gamma, Alpha, Beta and other 'rays' we could absorb...

We have an national exercise, Ardent Sentry, that exercises a response to this scenario every year. I spent 7 years as a planner and participator in this exercise. The exact details of the response are classified. I can tell you however that their is a very comprehensive plan in place involving not only the military but almost every other government agency.

"i would like to see americans use the same logic in the us that they use in their two illegal wars of aggression, "collateral damage is an acceptable price"!"
Exaplain to us oh wise one how either Iraq or A-stan were illegal? Once again do some research prior to opening your ball washer
Do what the Israelis did at Munich, what the Russians did to their turn coats during the Cold War;
hunt them down, and clip them off one by one.
Were it an attack by another country, chances are we'd nuke them back. But since terrorists don't even have a nation, that would be out of the picture.
I think the US will respond with nukes. If the game escalates to nukes, there will be no more concern for civilian casualties. The US will prove to the terrorists the incredible foolishness of starting a game of nuclear hot potato with the US. If terrorists think Americans should blame our own government for terrorist attacks, the mutated Middle Easterners can blame terrorists for their flipper children.
