6. Good question. On the one hand, they claim to have made the world
a safer place. A terror attack would just be more evidence that they have been fucking up all over the world. This I think, would be a rational observers view.

On the other hand, it would give them the opportunity to dress up like soldiers and prance around in front of the cameras to recycle the 9/11 sound bites. This would stir up the fiery angry base.

Imagine if they staged an attack on a Xtian Fundy icon somewhere! Wow - they could stir up all kinds of fundy rage!

Aside- Is it sound bites or sound bytes? Hmmm. It is the digital age you know. All images and audio are now bytes.
