Try portions of the Phillipines, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, etc.
Essentially anywhere that has a majority Muslim population. |
????? Since when is 7% of the population majority? They are mainly a Buddhist country. |

Jesus Christ on a pogo stick. Can any of you make simple inferences? Portions of a nation. As in, the portions of the nation that have a majority Muslim population. Religious groups aren't usually scattered helter skelter evenly through a country's population; they tend to cluster together. Therefore you'd destroy those clusters. |

So what you're talking about is dropping tac nukes on the muslim neighbourhoods of Kuala Lumpur, right? That'll show 'em!
Then when that's done, it'll be time to confirm that it was in fact the muslims that were responsible. |

Then we can nuke certain parts of US cities where Muslims live as well. We could take out neighbourhoods across the whole country. The suburbs of Paris.... GONE! |

Is not! I just heard about the attack on the embassy in Syria, and retaliation I'm going to strangle my muslim classmates by their hijabs. And I'm not even American. |

Again, I think another possibility is that agents other than the government would launch the strike. What would happen if a large city which had a weapons arsenal nearby was in such disorder and chaos that vigilante groups got hold of a weapons system?
This is something I think about often. Why aren't there corresponding terrorist groups in Europe threatening the Arab world with bootlegged Russian weapons? Maybe Al Queda knows not to overplay their hand..

Interesting!!! Now you have me thinking, "What WOULD the Arab people do (terrorists or not) if different terrorist groups began bombarding them saying, "you guys are attacking everyone.....". Interesting indeed. Nice point.  |

| ... lots of people would die, "freedom fries" would be a hit again, a full-on war with whoever dropped the nuke would ensue, several countries would participate and contribute to the war effort, and when the war was won (if...) America would take all the credit... |

Freedom fries? Only when you're angry at the French.
You're thinking of "freedom numerals." |

NUKE OR BE NUKED!
Ask yourself this question: Can terrorists be deterred from using WMD against American targets?
Mecca would be a rational deterrent to radical Islamists bent on using WMD against American civilians.
If Islamic extremists really love their religious institutions in the way that they claim they do, then pointing an ICBM at Mecca may not be the most irrational thing to do. They may not care if the rest of the world goes up in a nuclear mushroom cloud, but Mecca is not the rest of the world. Would they really risk blowing up New York City if they believed the consequences of such an action would be a 30 kiloton nuclear explosion over the Kaaba stone?
Perhaps only the threat of destroying Mecca would be enough. |
