I don't mean military contingents of the arab nations would be coming to america to wage war.
I mean the war would come to America in the form of individuals smuggling themselves in to set off bombs, poison water supplies, release biological agents in stadiums and attempts to smuggle nuclear warheads into a large city... etc.

You did, but what would really happen if these people were out in the streets doing this sort of thing? Martial law? National Guard monitoring movement. State militia and armed citizens shooting anyone that even looks like a terrorist? Stadiums would be full of terrorist suspects. Yes, we would lose some people, but we would suffer minimally compared to the homelands of the terrorists.
Nothing that a few thousand terrorists could do comes close to what 1 each 1959 B-52 could do to a country the size of Iraq. Cruise missiles with tactical nukes.
