Want to know how little our police/intelligence agencies seem to have learned from their failures prior to 9/11?
I'm afraid we don't need Black Hat/Defcon to tell us this. Just yesterday we had major terrorism alerts about specific targets and today we find out the information was all years old. Does that mean the buildings weren't targets still? Well seeing as some of the info went back prior to 9/11 it would make it seem a fairly safe bet that the seriousness of the threat was vastly overstated.
The most important thing is that they will have billions to spend on database technology and what they are trying to do is impossible.
I work in a database company (in migration), All the bases are mine. MO HAHAHAHA
Put in another way:
They have learned that if you:
1/Have no priors that the 'Intelligence' agencies know of. 2/Do not care what happens afterwards. 3/Know a few like minded people 4/Know how to fly a plane
The world is your oyster.
4 is optional, even 3 is just a good thing to have so you are not written off as a one off crank.
Something like getting a group of people to hire death machines (cars) and start running over people throughout the biggests terrorist state.
Sounds like a PhD all to itself. Maybe to make it hard to tabulate the list one could divide the amount of 'terrorism' by the square of the power of the state, since power corrupts.
Top Eleven in no Particular Order:
China Iran United Kingdom U.S.A Columbia Russia Sri Lanka North Korea Pakistan France Israel
I am not sure is it easier to consider where there are 'freedom fighters' and pick the state involved, or pick where there are the most active 'intelligence' agencies.
