Sounds good Spence - but in the event of a spectacular attack with a high body count, there's not much evidence to support the theory of a measured response with an eye toward calming the global marketplace. If 9-11 triggered the invasion and occupation of two countries - for a body count of approx 3000 U.S dead citizens - what kind of response do you think 20,000 or 50,000 dead would incur? I also believe would see severe racial profiling, deportations, and wholesale detentions.
