Nuclear options

I have been amazed at the stupidity of the people that perpetrated this awful carnage. I would have been enraged at strikes against military targets but my rage would have been restricted to the terrorist themselves and not their families and future generations. American rage is profound but the rage of our allies is mild compared to what it would be if the attack had been nuclear.

Could this be intended to elicit a nuclear response from us in order to open the door for nuclear terror weapons? Some will say that the terrorist don't need for us to use nukes first and I am sure that ultimately that will be correct. However, (unless I am wrong to give them credit for any intelligence), if I were a terrorist with access to nukes, I would want the enemy to use them first to avoid the worldwide rage that would follow a first strike nuclear terrorist act.

Either way I suspect that one of our cities will come under nuclear attack from these bastards before it is over. Hopefully our security will protect us next time.
