I&#x27;ve always found the way security&#x2F;terrorism issues are portrayed in movies or the news, especially in the U.S. to be really &quot;cute&quot;.<p>The manicheism of it all made me believe that either every news anchor <i>really</i> has no clue about how it works, or that they&#x27;re exceptionally good actors.<p>I also found that many times, events tend to be seen as discrete things that live in a vacuum rather than rooted to <i>some</i> previous event (isn&#x27;t it interesting that these documents are resurfacing during a transition period where the U.S. is turning its back to Saudi Arabia and warming it up with Iran?
