What you failed to realize is that before 11 Sept, Mecca and Medina were some backwater target to be nuked if we had nukes left over and if it fits the strategy at the time. After 11 Sept, the scenario has been war gamed out. In other words, if and when Mecca and Medina are decided to be targets, then subsequent subordinate targets are already spelled out.

By the numbers.
