Chapter 1788 How to Treat Rogues (Second Update, Please Subscribe)
official residence.

Li Yian slowly pushed away the file containing documents from his eyes, slowly stood up from the desk, and paced around the office.

I paced back and forth, thinking about the problem.

Then he stood at the window and looked at the stone-colored turtle doves on the grass. They looked a bit like pigeons and were hopping around in groups, leisurely looking for food.

These seemingly inconspicuous little guys are found all over the world and have extremely strong vitality. Especially in cities, they are the most common flying birds.

After turning around, Li Yian looked at Lu Ruixuan, who used to be Ding En's assistant. He took a few puffs of his cigar, held the cigar between his fingers, then walked to the table, pointed at the file with the cigar butt, and asked:

"Well, do you think this information is reliable?"

"My job is to verify this news again and again. This is an unusual matter, so I have to verify its reliability from multiple sources."

"That means you feel very reliable!"

"Completely reliable. This is consistent with our previous analysis. We believe that terrorist organizations in the Middle East are very likely to target us. In the past few years, they have been hostile to us."

Nodding, Li Yian frowned, he pulled the document in front of him and looked through it again.

The content of the document is very simple. It is a comprehensive intelligence that several terrorist organizations in the Middle East have listed them as their primary enemies, which means that they are likely to launch terrorist attacks on SEA.

This kind of thing... is fucking bullshit.
Although it is nonsense, it cannot be avoided. After all, the entire 1970s was a period when terrorist attacks were most rampant and terrorist activities were most frequent.

Although the 911/70 incident was very shocking, it is actually far from comparable to the s, when terrorist attacks were all over Eurasia. Terrorists hijacked planes and launched terrorist attacks at will. They even hijacked trains.

The number of deaths they caused in a year may exceed that of 911/. It can be said that the next ten years will be the most rampant period of terrorist activities. While the left-wing terrorist organizations are combined with the terrorist organizations in the Middle East, they also receive military training from Eastern countries including the Soviet Union. The degree of professionalism of the problem is far greater than that of their descendants, even Ben Laden cannot compare with them.

No country will be able to stay out of future waves of terrorist attacks.

Recalling the possible wave of terrorist attacks in the next 10 years, Li Yian thought for a moment and then asked:

"So, what plans does the Security Bureau have now?"

"Sir, our initial plan is to strengthen cooperation with Israel and other parties, and to obtain as much intelligence as possible about those terrorist organizations, so that when they launch terrorist attacks against us, we can grasp their movements as much as possible, and thus reduce or minimize the losses."

Lu Ruixuan thought for a moment, then added:

"At the same time, we will also launch an all-round strike against those organizations that launch terrorist attacks against us, so that they will be afraid to launch terrorist attacks against us..."

It was basically just a routine action. Li Yian nodded, thought for a moment, and then said:

"These are just some basic response strategies, which may work to a certain extent, but it is almost impossible to prevent terrorist attacks."

The reason why Li Yian said this is because the United States in another world, although it has been doing everything it can to combat terrorism, has never been able to stop terrorist organizations from attacking them.

"We must curb all this at the root, and fundamentally prevent those terrorist organizations from launching terrorist attacks against us."

Lu Ruixuan looked at you and said:

"Sir, based on the information we have so far, those terrorist organizations are usually stubborn and their thinking is completely different from that of ordinary people. They will definitely not stop launching terrorist attacks just because of our crackdown."

Lu Ruixuan had some understanding of those terrorist organizations. He knew very well that what those organizations liked to do most was to see the arrogant big and powerful countries launch a challenge so as to make a name for themselves.

In this process, they can obtain assistance from other countries.

"I know!"

Nodding, Li Yian tapped the document with his cigar and said:

"We really can't deal with those terrorists with the mentality of ordinary people. We must make them understand what is a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye."

After taking a puff of his cigar, Li Yian continued:
"This kind of tooth-for-tooth, eye-for-an-eye strategy does not only refer to counterattacks against terrorist organizations themselves. Of course, we must strike those terrorist organizations with all our strength. As long as they dare to launch an attack on us, we will make them pay ten times or even a hundred times the price.

But this is only aimed at the terrorist organizations themselves, and it cannot fundamentally prevent terrorist organizations from attacking us."

Taking a puff of his cigar, Li Yian thought of the dilemma faced by the United States in another world. Of course, countries like Israel also face similar dilemmas.

Terrorist organizations have never personally attacked them, even though they have launched one war on terror after another.

"We must root out the root of the problem. We must completely destroy any terrorist organization that interferes with our attacks."

After a brief pause, Li Yian continued.

"If you want to eradicate them completely, you must cut off the soil in which they grow, or the soil that allows them to grow and develop. This soil is not the injustice they have suffered, but the support from the outside. Any terrorist organization only has a few people in the beginning, and their growth and development depends on expanding their reputation through terrorist attacks, and then obtaining external donations and assistance." Thanks to the information he had seen in another world, Li Yian was very clear about the operating rules of those terrorist organizations - relying on external assistance!
"Without external financial and technical assistance, those terrorist organizations would be nothing more than a small group of insignificant gangs. They would be completely harmless."

Lu Ruixuan asked hesitantly:

"Sir, you mean we should cut off the supporters behind them."

The reason for some hesitation is that this involves many international issues, especially diplomatic issues.

"That's right!"

Li Yian nodded and said:
“Just attacking terrorist organizations themselves cannot fundamentally eliminate them. Even if we destroy one organization, a new one will be born tomorrow.

As long as there are people supporting them, they will continue to multiply and spread like a virus.

If we want to solve the problem fundamentally, we have to use a new approach.”

"A new way?"

Lu Ruixuan looked at you with some confusion.

“Yes, that’s the new way.”

Li Yian nodded and said:

"We are going to have a war on terror, and when I say war on terror, I mean a real war."

War on terror?

Real war?
Lu Ruixuan looked at you with some confusion.

"Usually when a country is attacked by terrorists, they will launch a counterattack against the terrorist organization."

Shaking his head, Li Yian continued:

"But this kind of counterattack is only a temporary solution. We cannot devote all our energy and attention to asymmetric warfare against terrorists.

They only need to drop one bomb into a crowd and we will need to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to strengthen our counter-terrorist work.

This asymmetric warfare will not only waste our resources, but also put us in a state of exhaustion.”

Not only is it exhausting, but even when dealing with some countries, we have to make all kinds of compromises with them, because those countries are the supporters behind the scenes.

"So, we need to view terrorist attacks as acts of war, and such acts of war are not just directed against the terrorist organizations themselves."

After taking a puff of his cigar, Li Yian once again displayed his gangster style.

"It also includes the countries that shelter them and those that provide them with resources. No matter which country provides them with shelter, as long as they provide them with resources, as long as this terrorist organization is involved in launching attacks against us, then we will launch a resolute counterattack against them."

In fact, the best way to deal with a gangster is to deal with him in a gangster way, rather than reasoning with him. Li Yian is very experienced in this regard, just like Libya’s implementation of oil nationalization - if they want to act like gangsters, they have to choose the right people.

"This kind of counterattack does not mean to accuse him through diplomatic means in the United Nations or other international organizations, but to directly counterattack. Give them a military counterattack."

Lu Ruixuan looked at His Excellency. Now he basically understood what His Excellency meant. His Excellency wanted to use military means to deter those terrorist organizations and their supporters instead of just talking nonsense.

After reaching this conclusion, Lu Ruixuan heard His Excellency continue to say:

"When those state-sponsored terrorist organizations attack us, we will use Tomahawk missiles to attack their vital targets - the presidential palace, military bases and military command centers. We want to let them know that we are untouchable."

While setting the tone for the war on terror, Li Yian, with a cigar in his mouth, never cared about any accusations from the international community. What could the accusations from the international community do?
Can terrorist attacks be prevented?

Can it bring back those who died in the terrorist attacks? Obviously not.

Therefore, when facing terrorist organizations and their supporters behind the scenes, we only need to respond in the simplest way, which is to make them understand that they need to pay the price for their actions.

"The most important thing for us is to protect our people. If anyone wants to hurt them...then they must pay with blood."

He exhaled a puff of smoke and then extinguished the cigar fiercely in the ashtray. Li Yian said:

“I don’t know which terrorist organizations will launch attacks on us in the coming days.

However, we must make all terrorist groups understand that national borders and international law will not protect their rogue behavior. We must use our missiles to tell those terrorist organizations and their backers to make them clear about what is untouchable! "
