You can effectively cut off the US (and possibly
North America) by just
taking out two locations: a parking garage in Virginia and a similar
location in California. 2/3 of all global Internet traffic goes through MAE-EAST
and MAE-WEST.
Yes traffic goes thru these now, in an "unbombed" state, but there are
plenty of smaller interconnects all over the place that could take over.
Anyway, I think you could drop all the bombs you want on MAE-E. Same with
Sprint-NAP - built like something out of "The Guns of Navarone".
