Threat of IED Remains

Tue, 18 Dec 2007 07:22:23 +0200

The IED threat will compel a thorough rethinking of military and civil defense doctrines around the world. Contrary to what many believe and hope, even if the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan subside in the near future, the threat of IED will remain and will likely migrate to non-combat areas and countries (e.g., U.S., Europe, India, China, Arab World), which are severely under-prepared to deal with such a threat. These major trends will become a driving force behind a thriving, technologically-focused counter-IED market, which we forecast will attain a CAGR between 8-12% over the next two decades.

The NIE and its criticizers neglected to discuss a critical alternative program the Iranians may be working on. Once Iran acquires 20 to 30 Kg of Weapon Grade Uranium (WgU), approximately the size of an orange, a mere machine shop will be required to create a Hiroshima-like Atomic bomb. This, in turn, will provide the Iranian regime with several world-changing strategic options.
