  1. The question of whether global terrorism can be defeated is complex and multifaceted. Experts suggest that while it may not be possible to completely eradicate terrorism, it can be reduced to more manageable levels through a combination of strategies. Here are some key points to consider: Terrorism is Rare: Statistically, terrorism is a relatively rare event, and mass casualty attacks are even rarer. This rarity makes it challenging to develop general policies based on statistical analysis. Intelligence and Integration: Effective counterterrorism strategies often rely on intelligence to understand and anticipate terrorist operations. Integration involves cooperation among nations and organizations to combat terrorism. Ideological Victory: Some argue that the ultimate victory over terrorism is ideological, requiring a recognition of common humanity over differences. Persistent Threat: Terrorism has been a part of human history for centuries and is likely to continue in some form. The goal is to prevent and tackle it effectively. In summary, while it may not be feasible to completely defeat terrorism, it is possible to limit its impact and frequency through strategic, integrated, and intelligent approaches that address both the root causes and the operational aspects of terrorist activities.

  2. The nature of terrorism in a post-Putin world involves various geopolitical and social factors. Based on current trends and expert analysis, here are some potential characteristics: Diversification: Terrorism may become more diverse, with a range of groups pursuing different ideologies and goals. Fragmentation: The landscape could become more fragmented, with smaller, decentralized groups or lone actors becoming more common. Technology Empowerment: Advances in technology could empower actors, both in terms of communication and the execution of attacks. Inspiration from Conflicts: Ongoing conflicts, such as the one between Israel and Hamas, could serve as catalysts for terrorist plots and attacks outside of the conflict zones, inspiring radicalized individuals and groups. Global Threat Landscape: The Sahel region of Africa is likely to remain a center for jihadist groups affiliated with the Islamic State and Al-Qaeda, taking advantage of failed states and ungoverned spaces. It's important to note that these are projections, and the actual nature of terrorism will depend on a multitude of factors, including international counterterrorism efforts, political stability, and the global socio-economic environment.
