Ever since 9/11, I've been wondering to myself when a nuke would be detonated in the harbors of San Franciso, or for that matter, in the middle of any major American city. Not that I want to see it, but the possibility of it no longer seemed absurd to me.
We need a US which is able to look inwards. I'm not saying that they should abandon all their objectives overseas. But, US infrastructure needs some serious fixing. There are some parts of the world that don't exactly welcome you. Take some hints and return home to do some over-due maintenance work? I think Thomas Friedman said it better than myself.
