Moscow Bombing

On January 24th, 2011, at approximately 4:32 pm., in the heart of Russia; Moscow's Domedovo Airport, a suicide bomber strikes, killing 35 and injuring over 130, another terrorist attack. These are the wars of the new millennium. How will future generations prepare themselves for these unexpected attacks?

The battlefields are strategically chosen where thousands of innocent people converge.  The attacker straps himself with explosives, full of self assurance and a faithful belief that all is being done in the name of Alah, in the name of God.

There are no fighter planes swarming above, no air raid sirens, and no military personnel in uniforms to clearly identify whose side they represent.  The innocent are murdered. These are considered as senseless acts, but never the less these are the attacks of a new type of war. How will the western world train and prepare for these types of attacks?
