    1. no the US should not use nuclear weapons on them.

      killing terrorists with conventional weapons is better for the environment.

    2. You're right, the trees and animals are very important and must be protected at all cost. Can't the US just gather all these dirty low life terrorists and put them in the middle of the desert somewhere then drop a environmently friendly hydrogen bomb on them?
