Script Kiddies versus the terrorists

Eric Norlin, a post-modern marketing whiz and former NSA spook, explains how we can apply lessons from attacks on the Internet to fighting al Queda and that lot. He explores the similarities between a modern terrorist organization and the Internet: both are “loosely affiliated group of nodes that exhibit emergent properties.” So what damages one should have similar effects on the other and therefore distributed denial of service attacks, viruses, and targeting key nodes should have significant impact on the terrorists. Cool, post-modern fighting techniques.
