I believe you're wrong about that. It would end up being a classic
case of asymmetric warfare, and could easily last longer than the war
in Afghanistan, much longer. You can't fight guerilla warfare with
tanks, jets and atomic bonbs. It's also doubtful that the US military
would have much stomach for fighting their brothers, cousins, aunts
and uncles. The big coastal cities where a large percentage of the
population resides are incredibly vulnerable to even minor disruptions
to their infrastructure. All hell would break loose, literally.
