I don't like your logic at all. I think there's pretty much an infinite
supply. And for every one you kill, there are 37 relatives who are
infuriated at the foreign infidels to the extent that they want revenge.
And we have pretty much an infinite supply of targets. And they are
terrorists. They aren't trying to weaken our military, destroy our
economy or decimate our population. They just need to scare us into
leaving them alone. I'm sure each of us could think up a hundred
terrorist targets in the US in an hour. How about a single kindergarden
class? If they can hit one, they can hit any of them. The Golden Gate
Bridge. Grand Coulee Dam. The Empire State Building. One major
freeway overpass in every major city, simultaneously. Exactly 100
simultaneous forest fires, in the height of fire season, at least one in
each state.

Oklahoma City was pretty bad.
