Default Bin Laden and his love of aviation terror

1. We know that terror operatives are hiding in the mountains between
Afghanistan and Pakistan

2. It is possible that Bin Laden himself is in this area

3. We are running around like crazy raising alert levels, canx flights etc.

How about this warning from our US Government:

If any terror attack occurs on US soil that results in loss of American
life or damage to American infrastructure from Bin Laden and friends, we
will launch one minuteman nuclear missile into the mountains of
Afghanistan and Pakistan and obliterate 200 square miles for each attack
or loss of life in America.

Missile flight time from Nebraska to Pakistan border is approximately 32
minutes.

You have been warned. Have a nice day.

In your world, there is no room between nuking people and having tea
with them? I pity you.

Lots of room, but people who simply dismiss others ideas and offer none
of their own are useless.

The babblings of idiots and trolls - and the OP is clearly one or both -
are barely worth the effort of dismissal, let alone counter argument.

You consider THAT an "idea"? You gotta be kidding! You want an idea from
me? How about trying NOT to be the bully of this neighborhood called
world?

Right now the governments of both Pakistan and Afghanistan are important US
allies in the fight against terrorism. Both countries have lost more
soldiers in this war than we have. bin Laden and his terrorist networks are
actively trying to overthrow the legitimate governments of these countries
through the use of force.

But you want to threaten our allies with random use of nuclear weapons.
Yeah, that'll convince them to get in line.
