Those nations with less tactical experience in the field of countering terrorism are especially in need of sharing the expertise of combat-proven organizations. The saying that all roads lead to Rome naturally applies in this field, however those who choose to go it alone may well pay for this independence with possibly fatal results. In addition, terrorist organizations may benefit from the lack of international cooperation by simply going for softer targets in this case targets in nations with less experience in dealing with terrorist activities. It is a tragic mistake, often made by nations not currently under attack by terrorists, to underestimate the threat to their own interests. This mistake impacts negatively on the tendency of these nations to engage in international cooperation to fight terrorism.
Terrorism is some one else s problem.
But in turning a blind eye on terrorist activity, so long as their own interests are not affected, these nations by their refusal to take a stand inadvertently provide the soil in which international terrorism can grow and flourish. It is only a matter of time before the phenomenon of terrorism moves from the television screens into the living space of these nations.
