If the South retaliates, then it will become quite a conflict. However, I have no doubt that the US is currently working furiously to stop the South from retaliation. The South, who is impotent without our military support, will act tough but secretly be thankful the US asked them to back down. Queue another 60 years of babysitting the arbitrary "naughty line".
The US should pack up and come home - save on the military expense.
