Defeat Terrorism: attack the terrorist's greatest weapon....

http://www.globalchange.com Future security, war against terror, defeating terrorist groups and terrorism. Impact on government foreign policy, military strategy and national security. Greatest weapon of terrorists is fear: playing on irrational emotions of public. Need to understand power of asymmetric threats using easily available bomb-making products. Military strikes less helpful than understanding underlying issues, perceived injustice etc and working to reduce numbers of disaffected activists that later become violent, intelligence, vigilance etc. Overstated risks of terror attacks, failure to understand risks. Why terrorism rules by fear and what to do about it. Lecture by physician and futurist keynote conference speaker Patrick Dixon for 2008 Stein Am Rhein leadership summit - facilitated by Professor Prabhu Guptara.

Terrorists....blah..blahh..bla­h...

Now that is enough about Bush, the CIA, Blair and all the other crooks....what about all this 'so-called' Al-Queda?

[simplybornhuman]

I've discussed this thoroughly, I've lived with muslims, i've received dozens of death threats for comments, I've researched a bit of their history, and day, after day searching for a reason to hope that the future would not turn out the way it seems likely to turn, my concern only gets more intense. Yes christians and other religious groups are turning secular, and i applaud this, but the fact remains that Islamics are living is a cage, there is no escaping their backwards fascist system.

I have lost count of how many death threats i've received.

What is the big concern, is not terrorism in itself, it's the fascism of Islam, the fact that we can't even liberate their own countries, and the fact that their followers have the highest birth rates. The future for UK looks islamic, and this is why people are trying to move you.

Nuclear weapons?

We need to keep ourselves, secualr nations completely, 100% separate from the facist and islamic ones.

logic made everything, logic should rule.

plz don't reply to this post, for your own safty ;)

I don't understand the 80:20 rule reference in the slide show.

Why does this audience refuse to participate?
