re: I'm not worried about the economy.

Well I am, but an attack in todays world could kill millions of people in one shot: The economy eventually could recover, but could society as we know it?

Such an attack could completely destroy democracy and replace it with facism, communism, or some form of anarchy from which who knows what kind of society would emerge.

Democracy and capitalism and liberty which impower the individual in America are fragil. We must be on constant guard about defending them. Our way of life is not the world's default method of governance. Most of the world is much more darwinian, where those who have power eat those who do not.
