But what you don't understand is that he'd do it in such a way to keep the military and the public on his side. Set off a dirty bomb in say, New Orleans since they want to empty that city out anyway. While at the same time set up some patsies to get caught with another dirty bomb in New York, or LA. Label the patsies "home grown" terrorists with supposed links to state militias all over the country. Then declare martial law to "protect" the citizens while rounding up, arresting, and disarming all militia members before sending them off to Guantanamo without a trial. After that, they use the scare as an excuse to outlaw all private ownership of weapons and they go around seizing all registered guns as well as kicking in the doors of all NRA members and seizing all their arms. Anybody protests they are labeled as terrorists with ties to the militia, that have already been framed as terrorists, and bundled off to Guantanamo.
