I have seen it many times on the posts in this forum that; "If you fail to prepare, you prepare to fail."
Your reasoning is correct only up to a point. The newer terrorists will be smarter and will more often come from internal sources then anything happening today. It is better to prepare for the more advanced weapons of terror than to try and run out to buy the information and equipment after it has happened.
Enjoy the holidays all!
