blog 12

     War has changed in the age of terrorism to a more systematic process of attacks from a distance.  A majority of attacks done by the US are now carried out by drones or guided missiles off of Navy vessels.  In contrast a majority of attacks done by ISIS are secretive and by the time to recognize that it is an attack it is too late because the attacks usually end in suicide bombings or attacks.  The Americans are very recognizable with there clear uniforms informing those around who they are.  In contrast the enemy ISIS easily blends itself into the civilian crowd making it near impossible to be able to point out who your enemy really is.  There is no longer trench warfare are mass assimilations of troops gathered to fight another mass.  This is a twisted step past guerrilla warfare, where morals have been grinded down to almost none leaving no clear rules of engagement because the enemy being dealt with does not follow such a code.
