Conventional warefare is obsolete accept as a method of aquiring natural resources and providing a market place for disposable products.
Present day war is conducted within financial markets as George Soures (splelt wrong?) proved in 1998.
Terrorism at present is simply random assination, an inefficient way of waging war. To have any usful affect, terrorists would need to target soft financial and political targets.
Lamentably these targets would not be those making the descisions but would probably consist of for example:
- Area managers of banks and their families
- Sons daughters wives and relatives and employees of congressmen and senitors
- Key personel and families of key personel in large corporations
- Personnel from law firms and acountants representing financial and political entities
In other words by accepting employment as support staff of any large financial or political organisation you would immediately become a target.
You can't be an effective boss if you have no one to boss.
The two main Bin Laden targets were the Pentigon containing US military support staff, WTC containing Financial support staff. The fact that these buildings were icons was an added surprise first strike bonus. In future prominant buildings of this type (hard targets) can not be considered the only targets.
In addition: the turn out of voters in so called democratic coutries is falling constatly as populations decide their vote is worthless. How many non-aligned terrorists will be created from their ranks is debatable, however dissatisfaction with conventional forms of representation has always in the past led to extremist behaviour. How long is it before the effectively disenfranchised choose to vote using other means as those who follow Bin Laden do?
