I think American's are lying to themselves if you say we are not going to get nuked. If out security/intelligence can prevent Al qaeda from beinging a suitcase bomb over here and detonating it I will be surprised (not that I dont hope they are sucessful). Al Qaeda is too determined and the USA has very porous borders. Also, thanks to our 50 year long coldwar, Al Qaeda can buy a bomb much easier than it would be to actually contruct one. It's like buying a new lawnmower at K-Mart, instructions and all on the black market. I think our best hope at avoiding a nuclear attack is to stabilize Iraq as a democracy and hope that leads to a more progressive middle east. As long as people in countries hate us, it doesn't matter how hard we try to buy their government, we will still be in danger.
