    I recently read a book by a retired agent about the effort against terrorism. If I remember correctly, terrorism has changed substantially since 9/11. The author described that terrorist nowadays are still organised more or less centrally but have a focus on smaller activities. I remember them describing them as “Nike terrorists” because of Niles slogan “just do it”. The smaller and more isolated activities are apparently much harder to detect and counter than massive attempts like 9/11
