I think that it might have to worry about bombings, possibly including 'the small nukes,' and perhaps a ground invasion at some point when the US government can gather enough troops, mobilize the public opinion etc. That is why I think a nuclear weapon, although no match to the US nuclear power, might be an efficient deterrent.
