ABSTRACT

We live in a world of ever growing threats that we cannot seem to foresee or stop. The war against terrorism is taking its toll on us all and taxing our resources. One reason that we are overwhelmed is that all problems with terrorism aspects appear to be rolled up under one label, the Global War on Terror. It includes an insurgency in Afghanistan, an insurgency in Iraq, the chase on Bin Laden, disabling Al Qaeda, bringing all Jihadist extremists responsible for 9/11 to justice, tracking militant Islamists plotting attacks against us, and controlling homegrown radicalized groups that are plotting attacks inside our borders.1 No wonder we have grown weary.
