EndingTerrorism.com demonstrates what the terrorists will do in the next attack, and what we must do if we hope to stop them.
Scenarios Mission Solutions

September 11 demonstrated just how vulnerable modern society is to attack by a small, motivated group of terrorists. Timothy McVeigh proved what one terrorist could do. September 11 showed us the greatly magnified power of a small team of 19:
  • They killed over 3,000 people.
  • They destroyed a complex of buildings in New York with a value of tens of billions of dollars, permanently altering the skyline.
  • They successfully attacked the Pentagon, the nerve center of the nation's military power and presumably one of the most secure facilities on the planet.
  • They shut down the airline industry for a week and crippled it for years, causing economic losses measured in the tens of billions of dollars and eliminating over 100,000 jobs.
  • They paralyzed the financial center of the world for a week by shutting the NYSE, NASDAQ and other exchanges.
  • They caused an entire nation and economy to stop dead in its tracks for several days to ponder what had happened.

Quite an amazing accomplishment for a group of 19 men. And that is just one attack.

The obvious question is, "what is next?"

If the 19 terrorists on September 11 could do so much damage, imagine what a well-trained team of 100 could do if they really wanted to hurt America. That thought is terrifying. It seems likely that they could kill a hundred thousand people or more, cause many trillions of dollars in damage and potentially derail the country for years. For example:

  • A simple truck bomb like Timothy McVeigh's at a nuclear power plant could contaminate an entire urban region, killing thousands. Click here.
  • A coordinated attack by 50 to 100 terrorists on the nation's energy infrastructure could completely shut down America's transportation system. Click here.
  • A well-placed nuclear suitcase bomb could decapitate the U.S. government or military by killing thousands of key officials. Click here.

They could do it, that is, unless we prepare for it and guard against it so it cannot happen.

EndingTerrorism.com demonstrates what the terrorists can do in the next attack, and what we must do if we hope to stop them. America is extremely vulnerable to terrorist attack at this moment in history, but there is a tremendous amount that we can do to close the holes if we act now. In the process, we can save thousands -- potentially millions -- of lives, save trillions of dollars in damage, and we can live our lives in peace and freedom.

At EndingTerrorism.com you will find a database of terrorist scenarios. Each scenario contains a description, damage potential and solutions that will help prevent that scenario from happening. Click here to see the current list of scenarios. Many of these scenarios are quite shocking when people first see them, because they are so destructive and, in many cases, trivially easy to implement. It is amazing that we, as a nation, are still this vulnerable despite the lessons we learned on September 11. You will learn about the depth of our vulnerability by reading the scenarios.

What can you, as one person, do today to help prevent terrorists from attacking again and doing even more damage to America? Please read the mission and solutions pages for details. Tell your friends and neighbors about EndingTerrorism.com.

The forums are the place to share ideas and see what other people are thinking. If you have scenarios and solutions, please enter them in the forums or send them by email.

If this Web site helps to thwart just one terrorist attack by publicizing the scenario and its solution, we will have truly accomplished something for this country and the world. Thank you for your support.
