Designed for Conflict

"Science fiction author, William Gibson once wrote that the target of terrorism was not the building being bombed or the individual being killed but the media. He argued that the purpose of an act of irregular warfare is to get media attention and that, in out media-saturated world, the media is not merely reporting on terrorism, but is the stage on which it is played out. To this end, Hezbollah has hired an advertising agency." /Digit/
