This newly prominent yet age-old form of warfare has redefined the modern legal landscape on a domestic and international level, while simultaneously striking fear in the hearts of millions. And despite the multiplicity of working definitions for what constitutes as terrorism, one thing remains constant: at its most fundamental level, terrorism involves <em>Actors<\/em> with <em>Interests<\/em>. Unfortunately, this relatively simple realization is lost to the strong positional interests and calcified dogmas of American national security policy. The United States\u2019 current approach imprudently shifts the treatment of terrorism away from the political realm and restricts the resolution of these issues to reciprocal demonstrations of force. But terrorism is inexorably political, and political problems require political solutions. This article seeks to address the inherent inadequacy of this policy and in doing so, expose how foresight can often times be quite short sighted. <a href=\"https:\/\/journals.law.harvard.edu\/hnlr\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/91\/Fiveson.Negotiating.HNLROnline.pdf\">Read more here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>*<em>Joshua C.
