They would probably be more likely to lash out at a country with less security than the US

I very much agree with this. The levels of paranoia and security are at fever pitch and the possibility of an attack within the continental U.S. is unlikely at the moment. More likely an ally of the US or US interests abroad. Have you heard about the Leitrim footballer who at a New York airport joked that he has a bomb in his bag and the entire place was shut down. He received some community service for this efforts. (methinks he's from the shallow end of the gene pool).

The tension between India and Pakistan is a cause for concern. Both countries have WMD (there's a word thats gone out of fashion) and if a war between the two broke out its hard to see where it would end.
