If a nuke went off on US soil

To quote the Japanese Admiral who realised his plan to wipe out the US fleet @ Pearl Harbour was diplomatically naffed up in Washington...

'All i fear we have done is wake up a giant and fill his heart with a terrible resolve...'

Well you thing that giant is annoyed now, you wait and see what a nuke will do to feck him off...

Israel is still the logical place for a nuke attack. That solves the
Palestine problem, the Israel problem, and the US response would seal
its' fate thus solve the US problem, as far as Muslims are concerned.
Israel may retaliate but the political blowback from doing so would
seal their fate. The world would wash its' hands of the whole mess,
and go along quite nicely thankyou without the US and Israel. World
response would pull out ALL our teeth as far as making war was
concerned.
Now if that happens things would indeed get REAL tough..
