Result
GBU-31: Mk84 bomb fitted with JDAM
RQ-1 / MQ-1 Predator
RQ-4 Global Hawk
Al Qaeda waged netwar
U.S. response to al Qaeda’s rise was weak and ineffectual: World had changed—and U.S. had not yet changed sufficiently
Most important advance in U.S. capabilities: JDAM UAVs (RQ-1A Predator & RQ-4 Global Hawk) Siprnet
In the past, civilian casualties were regarded as routine; now those were a major scandal Growth of precision-guided munitions

terrorists abroad had little ability to inflict damage far from home; now they have
