SOUNDING BOARD is an outlet for opinions on good and crazy things going on at home (wherever I may be). All are welcome. You are not expected to bring anything except your common sense & sense of humor.

Testimony of Bruce Hoffman (RAND Washington's Director) to the US JOint September 11, 2001 Inquiry Staff of the House and Senate Select Committees on Intelligence (8 October 2002). He cited this as one of the lessons US can learn from other countries' fight against terrorism: focus efforts at mid-level leaders in terrorist groups. "Policies aimed at removing these mid-level leaders more effectively disrupt control, communications, and operations up and down the chain of command. In addition, such policies also inhibit a group's long term growth by eliminating the development of future leaders."
