Actually, fighting terrorism, is mostly about luck, chancing on some information, and working from that. You will never be able to fight terrorism, just minimise it's impact. Just remember, for a terrorist to be succesfull, they don't have to damage anything, just the matter of disrupting our daily routine, and affecting the community, can sometimes be enough.

I remember working on a Base, and we had a disgruntled ex-builder, phoning bomb threats, cost, tens of thousands in lost production, and was very scary.
