Yeah, you could do that, but I think that a possibility that rarely gets talked about is that of an EMP bomb. A few of these in strategic locations (I'm thinking Silicon Valley, DC, etc.) would not only thrash the Net by ruining colocation facilities, routers, etc., but the economic implications would be unbelievable. Anyone touting a "Digital Pearl Harbor" ought to be aware of just how fragile our technology really is.
