Blow up the entire United States? I doubt that very much. The US is far too large. Any bomb big enough to do that, would probably end the world. Literally. Any bomb big enough to do that would probably crack the earth in half, therefore ending it.\n\nNow, had you asked, Will terrorist strike the US again? I would say, most likely. They attacked the World Trade Center in 1992 or 3 then again on 9/11.  I think they have proven to have stopped some other credible attacks as well. They have attacked some of our embassies and other installations around the world too, which technically are attacks on the US.  The most recent was today or yesterday.  I just saw on the news where Muslim extremists attacked a US embassy in Europe someplace.  They said the US was really the force behind the Danish cartoons.\n\nI think it is perfectly reasonable to think that there will be another attack on Us ground. I do not know how big or small, but I think there definately will be one.

I agree with you, it is hard to imagine Americans needing more evidence than that to retaliate. I think not only should we retaliate, we should do it harder. American soldiers know what they are doing when they enlist, they are putting their lives on the line to keep things like 9/11 from happening.Remember Pearl Harbor? Japan will think twice next time. We should never allow anyone to attack our civilians. A show of force may deter the next guy on the list from doing the same.

Yes....    not sure how else to answer it....   but let's compare... if a whole much of muslims landed in the US, set up bases, and declared their form of martial law... would we be upset with them?  I think Americans find it hard to understand their own foreign policies since such events has never happened to America...   maybe someday it will and then "some" people might see what it is like to be invaded.

No, after we nuked them and conquered them we forced them to re-write their constitution.  They are not allowed to have an offensive army and America is the guarantor of their safety.

If the USA keeps making themselves a target, than yes, certainly.\n\nConsider:  Bush himself estimates 30,000 Iraqis slaughtered in his war.  That is considered a conservative estimate by most, but let's say it is true.\n\nEach of those people killed had family members:  fathers, sons, mothers, daughters - all who will grow up hating America, and wanting vengeance - wanting to create their own 9/11.\n\nThat's not even considering our other policies in the world that make people hate us.  As we speak, the Bush administration is creating the next generation of terrorists in the world.\n\nI hope I am wrong.  But it seems like terrorism in the world will only increase, and the "war on terror" will never end.

We were attacked 10 times and every time it was by radical Muslims, what should we do? Even now one of the leaders has declared he wants to kill 4 million Americans with 1 million being children. I know not all Muslims think this way but we have a right and a duty to protect ourselves from those who do want to hurt us.

Yes. They are and will remain highly vulnerable to Islamic attack but in the USA all Ex-Presidents are given state security till life. So. they will never be insecure.

It'd be an almost impossible task, maybe they could take over a small part-like Hawaii, or Alaska (again Herculean), well and the US has weapons of Mass Destruction and are not denying them, rather using that leverage to control the world.\n\nIn case of such an eventuality happening, that particular invading country is gonna have the whole world after it's as.s, and will have to run, that is assuming that the local Americans don't start using their arsenal of weapons that their gun laws permit them to own, the other country is gonna get their as.sholes pasted on the wall\n\nA note to end - I am not an American and I am not from that fairy Blair's country, and have always been critical of US  in most of my posts pertaining to them. The vulgar expressions (they are a part of most humans' bodies though) are meant not as an insult but to explain, to stress that under the present circumstances what you are asking is practically impossible.\nChill out!\nst

Not yet. There has been a build-up of terrorists and weapons in Mexico for more than a year. The U.S. has done nothing to stop it. seems some people want an attack to happen between now and the 2008 elections.

Bush has said the US will defend Taiwan.  The problem is, there are so many Chinese in mainland China ... they would overwhelm us in a conventional war.

I have been thinking about this, because I do believe we will be attacked again.  Actually, I think we are attacked in small ways lots of times but they put it off with some sort of explanation.\n\nI think the government cannot control everything and the bureaucrats are too busy worrying about the war in Iraq to pay attention here.  A lot of inept people in Washington and in government are not doing their jobs, i.e.: FEMA\n\nI am going to get a firearm to protect myself.   I live near a whole bunch of refineries and I can just see them all going up in a chain of events because the all line the Gulf Coat and it is easy to bring a boat in here and no one notices.\n\nAlso, during the hurricanes there were lots of crimes being committed and no one really broadcast what went on.  We need to protect ourselves because in an emergency situation the government is not going to be of help\n\nI oppose martial law because it is just an excuse for crazy cops and nutter military people to shoot innocent civilians

If your an American your other nation runs the risk of being invaded especially if they have oil.

I believe a day of reckoning is soon at hand.  How much can the American people take?  We get attacked and condemned when we help others.  We are taxed to death and give billions to governements that squander our money.  Anyone can come into this country and get treated better than a citizen.  One of the next times any terrorists attack us, watch a backlash.  Personally, I am in favor of putting a wall around our nation and keeping everyone out.  Any nation or people that attack or condem us, gets nothing from us.  Let the terrorists kill each other.  Keep our tax dollars here and take care of our citizens who are hungry and need medical care.  If anyone sneaks into our country throw them back to where they came from.  If they do it a second time. shoot them.  I am tired of our nations being a patsy.

NOT AT ALL. America wont make the mistake 4 times!

Yes, and no.\n\nThis is a tricky question.  It has been over 4 years since an attack of this sort.  Trying to keep fighters in the air 24/7 will quickly increase equipment wear and accidents.  It is simply impossible to keep up this kind of barrier.\n\nAnd even more troubling, what would you have the Air Force do if it happens again?  Are you willing to have them shoot down an airliner full of civilians?  Are the people flying those fighters going to be able to do it?  Put yourself in their situation, would you like to pull the trigger and kill 300+ plus people whoare simply in the wrong plae at the wrong time?\n\nAt least now we know what we can face, and we have responded.  Airport security is tighter, and now that we know who the "bad guys" are, we are intercepting communications and getting intelligence from people who can warn us before it happens again.\n\nBefore 9/11, Al-Queda was yet another terrorist organization.  No more of a threat then Abu Nidal, Carlos, or many others active in the world.  It was only after 9/11 that we understood how badly they wanted to attack the civilians in our country.  And we have reacted to this information.\n\nAnd remember, FDR had information about Pearl Harbor.  And Trueman had information about North Korea attacking South Korea.  Even France knew it was about to be attacked by Hitler.  Having information does not always equal the ability to make use of it.
