Tony, Fab security is an issue. We know the terrorists do things we do not expect, so hitting a major fab that would cause economic repercussions is a potential item on their agenda, even if it caused no deaths. In fact they hurt their cause so much with the WTC disaster that they may select economic targets and avoid casualties in the furture.
Now who would that be? Since Intel has a fab in Israel it makes them a more likely candidate than many others.

What degree of security against armed incursions do the major fabs have? not much more than a badge checker I suspect, no hardening at all.
