Summary
Details

By knowing the past, we can hope to avoid repeating it.

The United States of America has a long and bloody history of terrorist attacks and shootings. But why do these events happen? What compels people to attempt violent atrocities to cause the most destruction and loss of life possible?

Whether it's 9/11, the Oklahoma City Bombing, Pulse Night Club, the attack on the church in Charleston, South Carolina, and more, author Scott Metzger looks beyond the headlines to find the root of terror cases that have left an indelible mark on history...and are continuing to influence us in the present. At times we see terrorism as something that happens in other countries and not in the USA, but from the 1990s to today, the presence of terrorism has never waned in our national consciousness. We can understand more about what happened by breaking down the mindset, tactics, plots, and planning of various militant factions, foreign and domestic. What's always surprising is how far some will go to carry out their plans, requiring an even greater force to stop them.

While the need to fight terrorism has always stayed the same, terrorism continues to evolve to this day, growing ever more sophisticated and deadly.

Let Scott Metzger give you his unique insights on this notoriously disturbing human phenomena.
