| 1. What
we want to accomplish. |
| Stop
terrorism without resorting to violence or with as little violence as
possible. |
| 2. Whom
we want to influence. |
| Political
and military leaders of the United States and other nations wounded by
terrorism. |
| 3. What our target is doing now instead of what we want them to
do. |
| Planning
military retaliation in response to the September 11th attack upon United
States. |
| 4. What external
forces keep
our target from doing what we want them to do. |
| Vehement
revengeful desire on the part of attack victims in the United States and
their allies. |
|
5.
How our target feels about what we want them to do. |
| That
terrorism cannot be stopped without visiting death and destruction upon
the perpetrators and, inevitably, innocent bystanders. |
| 6. What internal
forces keep us from influencing them. |
| A
long and strong history of meeting violence with violence. The fear that
not responding with might will make them appear weak. That terrorists
will not be moved by anything but violence. |
