Re: AQ attack on the US - this would have to pretty big or multiple locations to to really hit. A bunch of turkeys with AK-47s shooting up some shopping centers won't do much.

Chemical attacks are hard to make work - See Aum Sinriko in crowded subways with minimal effects.

Nuclear dirty bombs - more fear than threat Move away quickly and shower off....then support for radiation exposure. Really intense radiation sources will show up like a lighthouse on sensors.

Biologicals are the wild cards - but the US has lot of medical facilites, and a large biotech industry. Bird flu scares me a lot more.

I can see an attack, a small market dip then a reversion to mean.

Bond and USD dollar threats are more important in my view.
