"spread across the world with a non-state, nihilistic agenda. Sounds somewhat familiar, no?"

Epic.Yes Stratfor it does sound familiar. At least the nihilistic agenda does. Nihilism or belief in nothing is the only way I can understand how some fucking neo-con psychopaths could come up with the idea of staging the largest live action snuff film in the history of the universe on 9/11.

Belief in nothing, that describes it perfectly.

When you see through everything you see nothing at all.
