Anti-American terrorists today are attention whores, and not real terrorists
Take 9/11 for example: they attacked the US by taking out a financial center and trying to take out the Pentagon and White House.
Those are moves to grab attention, and only served to piss us off and resulted in their homes in Afghanistan and other places in the Middle East being blown up and/or getting them killed.
If they were truly trying to terrorize us they would do attacks in towns across the country. Not just grandstanding for media attention.
I won't mention specific ways, hi NSA!, but if you want an idea, look up the book Dead or Alive by Grant Blackwood with Tom Clancy's name on it.

16 RepliesThe point of terrorism is the intention of fear. What you are saying is called an "act of war." Attacking specific locations with the intention of bringing down something that stands as a symbol, such as the Twin Towers, they strive to incite fear.
