An informative book is "The New Terrorism" by Andrew Tan & Kumar Ramakrishna- written in 2002. thru 'Eastern University Press'- which explores Anatomy, Trends and Counter-Strategies. The authors predicted this 'wiki' thing way back then. I also feel it is good to get a differant perspective,other than the 'Western" view,,,which can be sensationalised thru the media propaganda wave. Typical Western view that Islam is completely at fault,and the root of terrorism, as shared by Ms. Fowler is actually what bin Laden hopes to achieve..fact is , she isnt 'quite right' in her assumption concerning Islam. Unless of course I have mis-read her. Fact is America's military strategy has failed..if they have 'won'..why are they still there? By still being there, bin Laden has acheived his goal..that is in part to destroy America financially. Ha..the search for bin Laden reminds me of the search for Geronimo..its becoming a joke~
