Argues that terrorism is not a uniquely modern phenomenon and shows that by placing it in the military context rather than sociology or political science it has a long and violent history. Suggests that terrorism has never been effective or achieved its objectives and that it will always fail. Calls for terrorism to be treated as a military act to which the correct response is military action.
