> Nuclear weapons should be used against the people of the nation who harboured those responsible for those despicable terrorist acts.
I respectfully disagree. I don't believe that an entire country (Afghanistan seems to be the current front-runner) should be held responsible for the acts of a few fanatics. Partying in the streets is an act of free expression, not an act of war.
Also, if it's the Palestinians, bear in mind that they don't *have* a country, and we'd have to nuke at least one of our allies (Israel) if we're going to nuke the Palestinians.
