I don’t have an opinion regarding order of port vs. financial hub. New York is a target for its communications infrastructure. That is in large part a component which facilitates its staus as a financial/economic hub. If you have a city of ~9M and a metro area of 20M without orderly communication, things can unravel from within very quickly. And everything not destroyed at that point becomes easy pickings.

1. Moscow is definitely getting targeted, as it’s a big administrative centre. But it’s also a big population centre, so a revenge attack on a big population centre is to be expected.

2. Food and manufacturing nowadays depends on things like futures contracts, foreign currency exchange, lines of credit and so on. Not to mention the ownership of the companies doing it! The right type of damage to the financial system could be very impactful.

3. There’s plenty of bombs to go around.
