Can national id cards help combat terrorism?

The REAL ID Act was passed for the purpose of combating terrorism in the United States, but it does so by setting minimum standards for state ID cards but without mandating national ID cards. The newly minted US Passport Card is the closest thing to a national ID card in the US.

Merely issuing the cards can do nothing to prevent anything. Requiring the cards might be able to help prevent some terrorism if the terrorists are not eligible for the cards. There are domestic terrorists, however, who have no trouble obtaining US ID. Also, foreigners are routinely issued visas or visas are waived for citizens of many countries. Even with stricter controls on visas, low-level suicide bombers only strike once by definition, so there is no history to check.
