Paul,

There is one type of networks, "Scale Free Networks", that have some very interesting properties. The Internet is a scale free network. Most nodes on the network have a small number of connections (1 - 2). The ramp up of connection counts is not statistically even. There is a cluster of nodes, a hub, with about 10 connections and there is a cluster of nodes with about 100 connections and there is a cluster of nodes with about 1000 connections.


Could you use the same logic to describe Islamist terrorist networks and/or the spread of Wahabbist ideology?
